A captivating display of pyrotechnics, a mesmerizing tour de force of masterful prose, The New York Times has hailed it as a masterpiece.
A private detective is enlisted to locate a missing individual, but this case defies all norms. Why has the stunning, alcoholic wife of the vanished salesman remained steadfast in her search for him for over half a year? What are the sole clues—a photograph and a matchbox? As the investigator delves deeper into the enigmatic underbelly of the urban landscape, he begins to question if it is he who has become lost.
This captivating blend of noir thriller and surreal dream, The Ruined Map, poses profound questions about identity itself.
San Francisco Chronicle has praised it as an exhilarating, imaginative, and thoroughly entertaining novel.
