by Horacio Castellanos Moya (Author)

Una trepidante novela que entrelaza las historiasde varios personajes cuyas relaciones forman un microcosmos borboteante de humanidad en medio de la barbarie más inimaginable.

«Cada novela de Horacio Castellanos Moya confirma la importancia de su autor, su arte narrativo, su modo incisivo de describir un país . --Livres Hebdo

María Elena ha dedicado toda su vida a servir en casas de gente influyente y poderosa de El Salvador. Una mañana en que acude a uno de estos hogares, se encuentra con que no hay nadie para recibirla. Detrás de lo que parece ser un secuestro se oculta algo más grave de lo que María Elena ya no podrá escabullirse, y que afectará gravemente a su propia familia. A la vez que se enfrasca en una búsqueda desesperada, contraviniendo las advertencias de su hija Belka, María Elena echará mano de El Vikingo, un viejo exluchador profesional convertido en torturador que tiempo atrás fue su pretendiente. Todos ellos, duramente golpeados por las consecuencias de una interminable guerra civil, se debaten para dar con el paradero de los desaparecidos y alcanzar su propia redención en el epicentro de una nación a las puertas de enfrentarse a un último round.

El autor insignia de Centroamérica firma una trepidante novela que entrelaza las historias de personajes cuyos vínculos forman un microcosmos rebosante de humanidad en medio de una barbarie inimaginable.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A heart-pounding novel that intertwines the stories of several characters as their relationships form a bubbling microcosmos of humanity in the midst of the most unimaginable barbarism.

María Elena has devoted her entire life to serve in the homes of influential and powerful people in El Salvador. One morning, as she arrives to one of these homes, she finds there is no one there to greet her. Behind what seems like a kidnapping, lies something more serious, something from which María Elena can't hide, and that it will gravely affect her own family. While wrapped up in a desperate search, against the warnings of her daughter Belka, María Elena goes to The Viking for help, a former professional wrestler turned torturer, who was her suitor long ago. All of them, heavily beaten by the consequences of an endless civil war, struggle to discover the whereabouts of the missing people and find their own redemption at the epicenter of a nation at the brink of its last round.

Central America's signature author delivers an exiting novel that weaves the stories of characters whose ties form a microcosmos ignited with humanity amid unimaginable brutality.
