"El asesinato de Juan José Torres" investigates the murder of Gen. Juan José Torres González, former de facto president of Bolivia. Torres was kidnapped and murdered in Buenos Aires in June of 1976, presumably by members of an Argentine hit squad. Author Martín Sivak surmises that the conspiracy involved Bolivian president Hugo Banzer Suárez; his cousin Eduardo Banzer, who was serving as Bolivian consul in Buenos Aires; Albano Harguindeguy, Argentina's Interior Minister; members of General Pinochet's Chilean intelligence service; and a variety of other political figures. Sivak interviewed over 60 people in Argentina, Bolivia and Uruguay to provide this in-depth account.
