LA NUEVA NOVELA INCENDIARIA DEL PREMIADO AUTOR DE QUE DE LEJOS PARECEN MOSCAS: un fen?meno de culto cuya adaptaci?n cinematogr?fica ha ganado la Menci?n Especial de la 56.a edici?n del Festival de Sitges.

«Distinto y aut?ntico . -El Pa?s

«La revelaci?n literaria argentina . -The Wall Street Journal

«Una de las voces m?s importantes de la novela policial argentina actual . -Claudia Pi?eiro

Fer es un escritor con un fuerte bloqueo creativo y aficionado al sexo extremo. Luz es su antigua pareja e hija del se?or Machi, el c?lebre protagonista de Que de lejos parecen moscas. Ambos vuelven a encontrarse por casualidad en un club de sadomasoquismo y Luz sugiere a Fer que escriba sobre las causas de la muerte de su padre, Luis Machi, conocido empresario y turbio hombre de negocios desaparecido misteriosamente de su finca hace una d?cada. Empieza as? la reconstrucci?n de los hechos de aquella noche y los meses posteriores, de la investigaci?n turbia y de las causas que llevaron a declarar muerto a Don Luis sin haber encontrado nunca su cad?ver.

La nueva y esperada novela de Kike Ferrari vuelve sobre una historia de corrupci?n, mafia y poder que retrata de manera implacable un pa?s en decadencia.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

THE LATEST INCENDIARY NOVEL BY THE AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR OF THEY LOOK LIKE FLIES FROM AFAR a cult phenomenon whose film adaptation received a Special Mention at the 56th Sitges Festival.

"Argentina's literary revelation." --The Wall Street Journal

"One of the most important voices in Argentinian crime fiction today." --Claudia Pi?eiro

Fer is a writer with a terrible artist's block and keen on extreme sex. Luz is his former lover and the daughter of Mr. Machi, the famous protagonist of They Look Like Flies from Afar. They both meet again by chance at a BDSM club, and Luz suggests that Fer should write about the cause of her father's death. Luis Machi was a well-known impresario and shady businessman who mysteriously went missing from his estate a decade ago. And so it begins, the reconstruction of that evening and the months that followed, of the dubious investigation and the reasons that led to declaring Don Luis dead, though they never found his body.

The latest and highly-anticipated novel by Kike Ferrari revolves around corruption, mafia, and power, and ruthlessly portrays a country in decline.
