Overview
«Una novela de suspense literario construida con gran eficacia narrativa en torno a un memorable personaje femenino y al poder de la genialidad. La autora ha sabido entrelazar amores y enigmas con una escritura a la vez compleja y transparente.»
Del acta del jurado del Premio Alfaguara de novela 2015
A Vera Sigall y Horacio Infante los une un amor de juventud y su pasión por la literatura. También un lazo misterioso que dos jóvenes, Emilia y Daniel, intentan desentrañar. Sin embargo, este no es el único enigma en sus vidas. Una mañana, Vera Sigall cae por las escaleras de su casa y queda en coma. Al principio, la noción de que su caída no fue un accidente aparece como una sospecha para Daniel. Pero con los días y las semanas, la duda irá creciendo hasta volverse una certeza.
Emilia y Daniel se encontrarán en la búsqueda de la verdad acerca del accidente de la mítica escritora pero, sobre todo, en la necesidad de entender sus propios destinos.
