Robert, Tony, and Philip thought their friendships would last forever; they were tragically wrong. In 1949, the three high school boys engaged in a harmless prank that unexpectedly deteriorated into a crime. An innocent man was blamed for their indiscretions, and the boys various moral qualms tore their relationships apart. It would be over twenty years before the teens would cross paths againthis time above the backdrop of Guatemalas civil war. In 1983, Robert is a successful physician. Tony has become a war correspondent and novelist, and Philip thrives as an expatriate art dealer in the heart of Guatemala. The three are drawn together as the small country begins to experience the most dangerous year of its civil war. The three old friends cannot avoid one another in the midst of the conflict. Relationships are reformed, each man working toward his own agenda. The past inevitably intrudes upon the present as their personal valuesand wills to liveclash amid the violence of uprising. The past cannot be changed, the present is what we make it, and the future has yet to be written. But will Robert, Tony, and Philip move beyond their haunted memories? And will they live through the present long enough to have futures at all?
