When the young narrator of Brother's Ghost happens upon a warehouse filled with corpses of the 'disappeared ones', victims of his country's brutal military regime, he is forced to flee his home and family and strike out for the interior. There he reunites with his long-estranged mother, a member of an indigenous tribe of Indians living deep in the tropical rainforest.
