Less of a currently reading, and more of a just finished, this is one of the books that's been in my dip into whilst waiting basket.

From the Blurb:

It is December 2001 and Argentina is in meltdown.  Pablo Martelli, once in an elite branch of the police force known as the "National Shame", is a shadow of his former self, scraping by as a bathroom-appliance salesman.

Late one evening, Martelli is summoned to a friend's coastal retreat.  He arrives to find his friend dead, and is caught up in a bewildering odyssey that leads him though vast, empty pampas, along endless highways and into ghost towns seething danger and brutality, to the ailing heart of his country.
