Daviero de Cox, the wife of former Buenos Aires Herald editor Robert Cox, recalls those dark days, skillfully recreating the climate of terror and conspiracy of silence that dominated Argentine society, while providing a personal testimony of the events that forced her family to flee the country.

Special guests at the event will include the author and her husband (who has written a new prologue to the book), Alina Daiconú, Horacio Méndez Carreras, Gabriel Seisdedos, Uki Goñi, Jorge Fontevecchia and Jorge Nedich.
