At the beginning of the 21st century, a man obsessed with invisibility takes the same boat trip that his grandparents did in the middle of the last century on their honeymoon. In Patagonia they met a unique woman, Graciela Pavic, whose mysterious story contains a painful secret. But the origin of her story goes back to the great adventure of another trip, no less mysterious, that took place in the 16th century and was destined to fulfill a secret plan of Felipe II in that territory. Narrated as a modern Thousand and One Nights, this novel covers a journey of five hundred years. In it, the trips that are linked are, in reality, a single and "great trip" to another place and another time. And also towards the fable.
