Reseña del editor
Spain, 1940. The remote mountain village of Potes is Carlos Tejada's first independent command. Elena Fernandez, his pregnant wife, accompanies him to his new post. They soon discover that his "promotion" is a mixed blessing. They arrive in a snowstorm and there is no one to meet the train. The officers of the small Guardia Civil post seem hostile, as do the villagers. The inhabitants of Potes are strongly Republican in their sympathies and engaged both in smuggling and guerilla activities.
They face a choice between living in the jail and foisting themselves as boarders onto a woman whose son was executed by the Nationalist government. And Tejada discovers that the officer he is replacing was shot to death from ambush; his killer is still at large. Then he learns that a new outbreak of the Civil War, financed from abroad, may be about to take place with Potes as its epicenter. And Elena, whose Republican sympathies have become known, is involved.
