The author blurb tells us that Jose Yglesias was born in Tampa, Florida of a Spanish father and a Cuban mother and drew heavily upon his Hispanic heritage in his writings. This was his last novel. From the publisher's blurb: ''Rudy Pardo, retire fire chief and guardian of order, comes upon a young African American apparently burglarizing his house. There is something challenging and mysterious about Munro, the brazen young thief, but also something disturbing personally to Rudy. His own prejudices and preoccupations erupt all to quickly. In this comic opera, one delicious dialog and face-off after another eventually brings this unlikely pair into an uncomfortable contract of mutual respect and wariness.''
