Overview

«No sólo el cartel está manchado de sangre, también lo está el vestido que Mamá Flor guarda como recuerdo de su hija. [...] Cuando la muchacha no volvió, Mamá Flor intentó lavarlo y remendarlo. Pero nada es tan difícil de limpiar como la sangre.»
 
1971: la pequeña ciudad estadounidense de Camel City se cimbra cuando la heredera de un emporio multimillonario desaparece de su habitación en un exclusivo internado para señoritas. En los hechos podría estar involucrada su vecina de cuarto, una mexicana llamada Rosario Navarro. Mientras el ambiente político se enrarece, la policía sigue pistas cada vez más ominosas.
 
1973: en Sinaloa, el profesor de Derecho Bernardo Ayala intenta disuadir a sus alumnos de enlistarse en las filas de la Liga 23 de septiembre, organización guerrillera que ve en las armas la única posibilidad de futuro ante un Estado represor.
 
Cuarenta años más tarde, siguiendo su frustrado anhelo de tener hijos, un joven matrimonio se cruza en el camino con Mamá Flor, una enigmática partera quien les suplica que le ayuden a buscar a su hija desaparecida.
 
La sangre desconocida es una novela donde pocas cosas son lo que parecen, cuya lectura nos incita a replantear nuestras ideas en torno a la identidad y la legalidad.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

“Not only is the poster blood stained, but also the dress Mama Flor has as keepsake of her daughter... When the girl did not return, Mama Flor tried to wash it and mend it. But nothing is as hard to clean as blood.”

1971. The small American town of Camel City is shaken when the heiress to a billionaire empire disappears from her room in an exclusive boarding school for young girls. Her neighbor down the hall, a Mexican named Rosario Navarro, could be involved. While the political climate rarefies, the police follow clues increasingly ominous.

1973. In Sinaloa, law professor Bernardo Ayala tries to dissuade his students from enlisting in the ranks of the Liga 23 de Septiembre, a guerilla organization that views weapons as the only possible future in the face of an oppressive State.
 
Forty years later, following an unfulfilled yearning to have children, a young married couple crosses paths with Mama Flor, an enigmatic midwife who begs them to help her find her missing daughter.

Unknown Blood is a novel where few things are as they seem, the reading of which encourages us to reframe our ideas about identity and legality.
