Beneath wigs and warpaint, rebels moved Turkish opium through the harbor and crossed names off ledgers. Some were loyalists. Some weren’t. Nobody asked twice. In the smoke-filled port cities of rebellion, a syndicate formed. Part secret society, part shadow state, it traded liberty like cargo and laundered loyalty through blood. Washington held the center. Franklin read every cipher twice.

El narrador es el propio autor de esta novela. Varón de 44 años. Está escrita en presente como tiempo verbal y ambientada en Cádiz (España) justo antes del estallido de la guerra civil. El narrador adopta un estilo mixto. Aunque narra en tercera persona la mayor parte del tiempo, se permite intervenciones en segunda persona a modo de pensamientos dirigidos a los personajes, específicamente a María, la protagonista. Esto le da un toque de cercanía, como si estuviera acompañando al personaje y cuestionándolo o aconsejándolo, aunque el personaje no lo escuche directamente.
