Tras la muerte de su marido (el magnate Matías Wagner, con quien se casó a los quince años embarazada), Val Valdés se presenta a Sobreviviendo, el primer reality show que se emite en España, y pone patas arriba la televisión nacional. Val consigue enamorar a todo el país y ganar el concurso, con cuyo premio funda un imperio empresarial y se retira de la vida pública hasta que, varios años después, se entrega a la policía como culpable del asesinato de Dani Leis, un antiguo compañero de colegio en Santiago de Compostela.
Como Joël Dicker o Pierre Lemaitre, Arantza Portabales ensambla con gran precisión y ritmo frenético las piezas de una intriga absorbente alrededor de una protagonista de excepción: Val Valdés, una mujer triunfadora que no deja de saborear la derrota.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
After the success of Abad and Barros’ series, comes a thriller that won the Serial Novel Award of La Voz de Galicia, written by the new lady of Spanish noir fiction.
After her husband’s death (tycoon Matías Wagner, whom she married pregnant at fifteen), Val Valdés enters Surviving, the first reality show broadcasted in Spain, and turns national television upside down. After enamoring the entire country during the contest and coming out victorious, she builds a corporate empire and retires from the public eye until, several years later, she turns herself in to the police, guilty of murdering Dani Leis, a former classmate, in Santiago de Compostela.
