Book Synopsis



Después de Justicia, Javier Díez Carmona regresa con un thriller ambientado en el País Vasco más aislado y salvaje.

Una historia de secretos, desapariciones y depravación.

Agurtzane Loizaga, profesora de la universidad de Bilbao, se mudó hace poco con su pareja a un caserío de la comarca de Las Encartaciones. En ese baserri aislado se creían felices hasta que, de la noche a la mañana, su novia desaparece. Aunque la policía le resta importancia, una serie de indicios le hacen sospechar que su marcha no ha sido voluntaria.

Osmany Arechabala lleva meses afincado en Bilbao, lejos de su Cuba natal, cuando un viejo amigo le pide ayuda para encontrar a su hija. No hay noticias suyas desde que dejó la casa de las ancianas que cuidaba en una pequeña villa de Las Encartaciones. Osmany, acompañado de Nekane Gordobil, suboficial de la Ertzaintza de baja laboral, decide aceptar el encargo sin ser consciente de las dimensiones de su empeño.

Con una atmósfera sublime, esta novela nos lleva al escarpado corazón del País Vasco para contarnos una historia de crímenes, vicios ocultos y un pasado que se resiste a desaparecer.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

After Justicia, Javier Díez Carmona returns with a thriller set in the most isolated and wild side of the Basque Country.

A story of secrets, disappearances, and depravity.

Agurtzane Loizaga, a professor at the University of Bilbao, recently moved with her partner to a farmhouse in Las Encartaciones region. They thought they were happy in the islolated village until, overnight, Agurtzane's girlfriend disappeared. Although the police give little importance to it, a series of indications suggest that her departure was not voluntary.

Osmany Arechabala has been living in Bilbao for months, far from his native Cuba, when an old friend asks him for help to find his daughter. There is no news from her since she left the home of the old ladies that she cared for in Las Encartaciones. Osmany, accompanied by Nekane Gordobil, an Ertzaintza deputy officer on sick leave, decides to accept the assignment without being aware of the dimensions of his commitment.

With a sublime atmosphere, this novel takes us to the rugged heart of the Basque Country to tell us a story of crimes, hidden vices, and a past that refuses to disappear.
