Book excerpt: When jazz pianist Santiago Biralbo meets the wife of an American art dealer he begins not only an obsessional love affair but an odyssey that will strip him of his identity in his quest to understand love and music. A C zanne painting; the name Burma; a jazz musician who has passed into legend and oblivion; murder; and a mysterious woman - these are just a few of the tantalizing elements that converge in Winter in Lisbon. Infused with the melodrama of film noir and the rhythms of jazz, this is a haunting exploration of the lethal extremes to which we can be driven by love, art and money.
