Book Synopsis



Una ciudad.

Dos asesinos.

¿Quién puede ponerle precio a una vida?

El homicida en serie conocido como el Asesino de las Monedas aterroriza al popular barrio del Raval, en Barcelona, sin que la policía pueda detenerle. Los muertos no tienen relación entre sí más allá de que junto a sus cuerpos aparece una moneda de cada vez más valor en función del estatus de clase de la víctima.

El inspector Enrique Moreno trata de resolver los cruentos asesinatos bajo la presión social y política, pues se teme que el criminal tenga reservado el billete de quinientos euros para el rey de España. Joan Veiga, el periodista más famoso de true crime del país, le vigila de cerca para conseguir información exclusiva sobre el caso. Pero todo da un vuelco en la vida de Enrique cuando su familia se ve implicada en la investigación y aparece un segundo asesino en serie que persigue y mutila hombres sexualmente.

¿Tienen relación ambos homicidas? ¿Logrará Enrique resolver los crímenes antes de que los miembros de su familia se conviertan en víctimas?

El escalofriante debut en el thriller de Javier Ramos, uno de los guionistas de El Mundo Today, es una ópera prima trepidante, plagada de sorpresas y con un final totalmente inesperado, que reflexiona sobre el auge del true crime y las películas basadas en crímenes reales como cima del entretenimiento.

One city.

Two killers.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Who dares to put a price on life?

The serial murder known as the Coin Killer is terrorizing the popular Raval neighborhood of Barcelona. The police are stymied; the deaths seem to have no connection except for the currency placed next to the bodies, increasing in value according to the victim's social class.

Under public and political pressure to solve the brutal crimes, Inspector Enrique Moreno is increasingly convinced that the killer is reserving the five hundred euro note for the King of Spain himself. Joan Veiga, the country's most famous true crime reporter, shadows the inspector in the hope of gleaning exclusive information about the case. But Enrique's life is turned upside down when his family is implicated in the investigation and a second serial killer appears on the scene, hunting and sexually mutilating men.

Are the murders related? Can Enrique solve the crimes before his family become victims?

The spine-tingling first thriller by El Mundo Today writer Javier Ramos is a rollercoaster ride of surprises that reflects on the true crime genre as entertainment.
