Gorgo visits Hector to let him know his ex-wife Maria has passed in this decades-spanning story with many jumps back and forth in time, focusing on Hector from the time he met Maria at a 1948 beauty pageant to their marriage and then later divorce. A separation greatly complicated by his time working for the mob and then informing on them, resulting in him hiding out in a small village South of the border for over twenty years to keep Maria, Petra and Fritz safe.
