First published in Albanian as Pasardhësi by Shtëpia Botuese.
In 1981, on a December night, the designated successor to Albania's tyrannical "Guide" died of a gunshot wound; the Albanian news reported it as a suicide, but rumors spoke of murder. The search for the story of that night spirals inward from the speculations of foreign intelligence analysts to the posthumous and fragmentary recollections of the successor himself.
Translated from the French to English.
The Man Booker International Prize 2005.
