Fatal Tango

Giulietta Battin has devoted herself to ballet, earning a coveted spot as a dancer with the Staatsoper Berlin. But when she decides to explore a new style of music--the tango--life as she knows it changes forever. Soon after beginning her musical adventure, she meets Argentinean tango dancer Dami?n Alsina. They begin a torrid affair...which quickly turns into a nightmare. Dami?n suddenly sabotages his own performance with a bizarre, improvised choreography. His passionate creativity excites Giulietta, until Dami?n's strange behavior culminates in a shocking act: he kidnaps and tortures her jealous father. Horrified, she demands answers, but Dami?n has fled to Buenos Aires and her father, his victim, is being suspiciously unforthcoming. So Giulietta follows her lover to South America, where her journey into the world of tango confronts her with the unspeakable horrors of the country's brutal past. But denial will never silence art, and as Giulietta learns to decipher the true significance of Dami?n's dance style, she finds the key to the mystery of her lover s past and the terrifying truth that connects it with her own.
