Overview
Un relato que no se toca el corazón para llevar al lector frente a la bestia con piel de ángel que se esconde a plena luz del día.
Raymundo Betancourt es el ciudadano modelo: profesionista honesto y responsable, solidario y comprometido con el bienestar de su comunidad. Pero como la vida no sólo es trabajo, también se permite dos sencillos placeres cotidianos: los chicles de canela y las niñas que mantiene secuestradas en su sótano.
El monstruo pentápodo nos enfrenta sin ambages ni eufemismos con la mente oscura del asesino, del psicópata adorable y manipulador ante cuyos encantos sucumbió Aimée –otra “pequeña”, pero a su modo– hasta el punto de volverse cómplice a cambio de un poco de amor.
Liliana Blum es tan hábil como despiadada. No se toca el corazón para empujar al lector al foso donde habita esa bestia con piel de ángel que se esconde a plena luz y que podría ser tu vecino, o el mío, o el de cualquiera…
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A story that does not hesitate to confront the reader with the beast in angel’s skin hiding in plain sight.
Raymundo Betancourt is the model citizen: an honest and responsible professional, supportive and committed to the well-being of his community. But since life is not only about work, he also indulges in two simple daily pleasures: cinnamon gum and the young girls he keeps locked in his basement.
El monstruo pentápodo confronts us directly and without euphemisms with the dark mind of the killer, the charming and manipulative psychopath whose allure seduced Aimée—another “little one,” but in her own way—until she became his accomplice in exchange for a bit of love.
Liliana Blum is as skillful as she is ruthless. She does not hesitate to push the reader into the pit where dwells that beast in angel’s skin hiding in broad daylight, who could be your neighbor, mine, or anyone’s…
