Juego de sombras

Author: Bruno Tuesday 2 April 2024

Ane Armentia, investigative journalist and scourge of unscrupulous politicians and businessmen, leaves her home to meet Mario Laredo, the investigating judge in the Alondra case, a network of political corruption, but before she passes the doorway, an unknown assailant stabs her to death.
For the police it is nothing more than a robbery with violence, but Judge Laredo knows exactly what the assailant was after: the information that Armentia had been gathering and which threatens to destroy the foundations of the Catalan business fabric.
The shrewdness of the prosecutor Virginia Gibert will help Laredo to untangle a spider’s web that becomes more complicated as the investigation progresses, because there are too many people interested in keeping the truth in the shadows.
A duel of forces in which power, ambition, love and sexual attraction are at the centre of a judicial intrigue with a disturbing rhythm.

Author: Bruno Wednesday 27 March 2024

In a hauntingly familiar country, Argentine reporter Clara Guinzburg returns to Spain to interview a famous writer. However, it will be a first step to uncover the brutal truth hidden in her childhood, and behind her mother’s death 30 years earlier

Argentine journalist Clara Guinzburg returns to Spain to interview Nora Rizzo, an internationally successful writer, although her journey is overshadowed by the discovery of a family secret that is the perfect script for the novel she dreams of writing.

Her mother, who died 30 years ago when she was barely three years old, left an enigmatic folder that the journalist discovers by chance where she had lived as a child: In the summer of 1988 her mother had a romantic relationship with a man who would end her daughter’s life before committing suicide. Clara is not only surprised by this revelation, but also that her mother died shortly after that crime in the same Valencian town where that tragedy happened.

Clara Guinzburg wants to fit the puzzle of an unknown past and, at the same time, write her first novel. However, his attempt to reveal that enigma will open Pandora’s box: someone is not willing to return that past with all its silences.
