Summer 1956! An ominous idyll of a summer's sweltering pause, waiting and preparation. One evening, my friend calls me unexpectedly and asks if I would like to visit the experimental falconry colony in Ohati (the only one in the country), where the chief falconer is a good friend of his.

You will believe.
