Arturo Belano and Ulises Lima, the so-called "wild detectives", who are bound together not only for their occasional drug-dealing activities but also for their common condition as poets of the most rabid avant-garde style, set out on a journey to follow thetracks of Cesarea Tinajero, a mysterious and eminent writer who disappeared somewhere in Mexico during the years immediately after the Revolution. Their search takes them to the Sonora desert where Tinajero's tracks were lost in the 1920s. The journey however, is more than the search for Cesarea Tinajero, it is an eternal one, an infinite flight, where both travellers seem to have no other aim but to disappear in the immensity of a geographical space with no limits other than those set by the planet itself. The journey and its outcome lasts twenty years, from 1976 to 1996 - the canonical time for any wandering. Arturo Belano's journey, after a long stay in Spain, ends at the heart of the darkest Africa. Ulises Lima's destiny takes him to Mexico, France, Israel, Austria and Nicaragua and he will choose precisely the Sandinist Nicaragua to disappear in, leaving no trace behind him. The story bifurcates through multiple characters and continents in a novel where everything can be found.
