About the Book



"December, Santiago de Compostela. Police inspector Yoel Garza receives a distress call. A skeleton with a bullet hole through the skull has been dug up. The teeth are missing, except for a gold incisor. Instantly, Yoel remembers that an old schoolmate, Antonio Servâan, published a novel with a cover identical to the crime scene. But that is not what worries him most. Next to the bones, they have found the engagement ring his girlfriend lost a few months back. Who put it there? And why? From that moment, the game is afoot between two brilliant minds, a race against time to prove the identity of a macabre serial killer."--



Book Synopsis



ATRÉVETE CON LA NUEVA VOZ DEL THRILLER ESPAÑOL.

UN JUEGO DE MENTIRAS Y ENGAÑOS

Diciembre, Santiago de Compostela. Yoel Garza, inspector de la Policía judicial, recibe una llamada de emergencia. Han descubierto un esqueleto enterrado con un orificio de bala en el cráneo. Le faltan todos los dientes, excepto un incisivo de oro. Al instante, Yoel recuerda que un antiguo compañero del colegio, Antonio Serván, publicó una novela cuya portada es idéntica a la escena del crimen.Pero no es eso lo que más le preocupa. Junto a los huesos, han encontrado el anillo de compromiso que su novia perdió meses atrás. ¿Quién lo ha puesto ahí y por qué?

A partir de ese instante, da comienzo un juego entre dos mentes privilegiadas, una búsqueda contrarreloj para demostrar la identidad de un macabro asesino en serie.

UNA BATALLA PSICOLÓGICA DE RITMO VERTIGINOSO

UN PLAN TEJIDO DURANTE LARGOS AÑOS

Francisco Lorenzo nació en Santiago de Compostela (Galicia) en 1986. Licenciado en Publicidad y RR. PP., se ha sentido siempre motivado por crear historias. En 2021, de la mano de la editorial de juegos de mesa Doit Games, salieron al mercado tres aventuras de «IQFiles», un escape room narrativo de mesa creado por él que ya ha sido licenciado por otras editoriales en países como Francia.

Sin embargo, su forma preferida de contar historias siempre ha sido la novela. El manipulador es su debut, donde despliega un uso magistral del misterio y del suspense, presentando su tierra natal, Galicia, como telón de fondo y consagrando a su personaje principal, Yoel Garza, como uno de los personajes más originales del thriller español de los últimos años.
