Overview

The book tells a tale on how legends are created out of thin air. A quiet town on a quiet summer day knows great upheaval when the news of a potentially fatal epidemic reaches its citizens. It is in fact only a propaganda plot gone wrong, complicated by a real death that is not part of the scenario, and from that point on everything goes topsy-turvy, despite the authorities' efforts to re-establish peace and order. The vortex does not spare even the most venerable institutions, and the different religious denominations are caught in the contest of getting the upper hand. There is a prize for it - a brand new martyr that will mark a point of major glory for the winning church. On this background, and like a mirror of the general state of distress, the propaganda plot's author, the Scribe, lives the dissolution of his own personal life when making the wrong choice based on pure lust.

In the end there is redemption, both for the city and the protagonist. Yet is it indeed the final chapter in this tumultuous and ever-recurrent story?
