Overview

La novela policiaca más revulsiva de la literatura española.

«¡Poderosa, original y adictiva!

Una nueva voz con un increíble potencial, que recuerda a Dolores Redondo, Pierre Lemaitre y Luca D'Andrea.»,-
Sander Knol, editor de La novia gitana en Holanda

En Madrid se mata poco», le decía al joven subinspector Ángel Zárate su mentor en la policía; «pero cuando se mata, no tiene nada que envidiarle a ninguna ciudad del mundo», podría añadir la inspectora Elena Blanco, jefa de la Brigada de Análisis de Casos, un departamento creado para resolver los crímenes más complicados y abyectos.

Susana Macaya, de padre gitano pero educada como paya, desaparece tras su fiesta de despedida de soltera. El cadáver es encontrado dos días después en la Quinta de Vista Alegre del madrileño barrio de Carabanchel. Podría tratarse de un asesinato más, si no fuera por el hecho de que la víctima ha sido torturada siguiendo un ritual insólito y atroz, y de que su hermana Lara sufrió idéntica suerte siete años atrás, también en vísperas de su boda. El asesino de Lara cumple condena desde entonces, por lo que solo caben dos posibilidades: o alguien ha imitado sus métodos para matar a la hermana pequeña, o hay un inocente encarcelado.

Por eso el comisario Rentero ha decidido apartar a Zárate del caso y encargárselo a la veterana Blanco, una mujer peculiar y solitaria, amante de la grappa, el karaoke, los coches de coleccionista y las relaciones sexuales en todoterrenos. Una policía vulnerable, que se mantiene en el cuerpo para no olvidar que en su vida existe un caso pendiente, que no ha podido cerrar.

Investigar a una persona implica conocerla, descubrir sus secretos y contradicciones, su historia. En el caso de Lara y Susana, Elena Blanco debe asomarse a la vida de unos gitanos que han renunciado a sus costumbres para integrarse en la sociedad y a la de otros que no se lo perdonan, y levantar cada velo para descubrir quién pudo vengarse con tanta saña de ambas novias gitanas.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The most electrifying crime novel in Spanish literature.
 
“Powerful, original, and addictive! A new voice with incredible strength, reminiscent of Dolores Redondo, Pierre Lemaitre, or Luca D’Andrea.” –Sander Knol, editor of The Gypsy Bride in Holland
 
“In Madrid, people don’t kill each other very much,” young Deputy Inspector Ángel Zárate’s mentor on the police force told him; “but when they do, they are just as bad as any other city on earth,” added Inspector Elena Blanco, head of the Case Analysis Brigade, a department created to solve the most complicated and heinous crimes.
 
Susana Macaya, daughter of a gypsy but raised as a non-gypsy, disappears after her bachelorette party. Her body is found two days later in the Vista Alegre House in the Carabanchel neighborhood of Madrid. It could be just one more murder, if it weren’t for the fact that the victim was tortured following an unusual, atrocious ritual, and that her sister Lara suffered an identical fate seven years ago, also just before her wedding. Lara’s killer has been locked up since then, so there are only two possibilities: either someone has imitated his methods for killing the younger sister, or an innocent man is in prison.
 
Therefore, Commissioner Rentero has decided to move Zárate off the case and hand it over to Blanco, the veteran: a peculiar, solitary woman, lover of grappa, karaoke, classic cars, and all-terrain sexual relations. A vulnerable policewoman, who stays on the force to remind herself that in her life there is one unsolved case that she has been unable to close.
 
Investigating someone implies getting to know them, discovering their secrets and contradictions, their history. In the case of Lara and Susana, Elena Blanco must immerse herself in the lives of some gypsies who have renounced their customs to become integrated in society, and others who will not forgive them for it. She must lift every veil to discover who could take vengeance on the two gypsy brides with such cruelty.
