Kino and Hermes head to a country that is known as “the worst of the worst,” but the country’s people, who were rumored to be cruel and uncaring, turn out to be the kindest people that Kino and Hermes have met on their journey. Despite the country’s kindness and warm hospitality, something “warmer” might be brewing deep beneath the surface…
