La nueva revelación del thriller nacional viene del sur y su nombre es Trifón Abad.
Una joven desaparecida.
The newest name in Spanish thrillers is from the south, and his name is Trifón Abad.
A young girl disappears. Her father won't rest until he has answers. In this intense thriller, secrets hurt as much as the truth. Seven years ago, Berta went out with friends and never made it home. Somewhere in the early morning hours, she simply vanished after a night of partying at a rave. Her father, a former private detective, lives in squalor on an orchard in Murcia with his dog, Wolfe, as his only company. Berta's disappearance remains shrouded in mystery, a wound that won't heal and an unbearable failure. But when an acquaintance asks him to look into the accidental death of a young man in a local scrapyard, his investigative instincts kick in, and a lucky discovery puts him on the rocky path to the truth. What happened to Berta? A rebel and non-conformist, what secrets was she hiding? Most of all, what happened in the desert the night of the rave?
