Kaz is fed up with his job as a bureaucrat in Washington so he accepts an assignment in South America to find the mysterious leader of a revolutionary religious cult. Kaz speaks the language and he knows the terrain. After visiting old friends, he heads into the empty spaces and the terrible beauty of the Andes.
What he finds is violence. To quell the rebellion born of racism and extreme poverty, the army is brutal and is aided by special teams of U.S. troops. There are casual massacres on both sides.
As Kaz journeys deeper into isolation, he vacillates between cynicism and sorrow. His quest leaves him numbed by the callousness of men and the indifference of the arid mountains. Eventually he finds the cult leader at a mass meeting of the Andean believers in a high and secret valley but it is too late.
