ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A daughter’s investigation to learn the truth about her father. A fast-paced journey into the music of the late 20th century. A moving novel filled with intrigue and nostalgia.
What secrets does the mysterious disappearance of a nineties rock legend hide?
Lola Acosta travels from Madrid to London on the trail of her biological father, Peter Russ, the 90s biggest Spanish music star, who disappeared twenty-three years ago at the beginning of the most important concert of his career. Her investigation will reveal how the event transformed everyone around: the singer's brother, his ex-girlfriend, his manager, friends, his father, and stepmother... Little by little, Lola will discover what happened to her father, until she learns about a truth that perhaps would have been better left buried.
An addictive story that talks about the sins of youth, forbidden relationships, the cruelty of jealousy and envy, and an epic love through a plot woven with great skill and narrated with a simple and brilliant prose.
A magnificent novel riddled with intrigue and secrets that explore the contrast of love and family with music as the common thread and the nostalgia of the nineties as a backdrop.
