AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Sacked from ASIO for his involvement in the Peace Crimes' Affair, Ramdas Nair is now a private detective facing bankruptcy.

Notes

  • For Rose and Wren
  • Epigraph: Going, in the evening into the shop of the glassblower, I asked if they might have a glass blown in the shape of a heart. For a moment they looked at me with sad eyes, then laughed and replied, 'Everything you see was once a heart, now melted and blown into a cup. We have only hearts, there is no glass.' - Mir Taqi Mir, 1720-1808
