Crímenes : pecados capitales

In the seven true stories gathered in this book, the possible motive for the crime is always one of these passions. The kidnapping of Mélodie Nakachian in the jet-set world of the Costa del Sol; the crime at the Esclat supermarket in Mollet del Vallès, where the security guard was stabbed; the disappearance in Canovelles of the baby of a family who had recently won the Christmas lottery; the Febamar case in Alcanar, in which the owner of a car dealership and his wife are assaulted and tortured to death; the story of the Ventas cannibal in Madrid or that of the Shaolin monk in Bilbao, who had turned a gymnasium into a pit of horrors, and the murder of Isidre Matas, a very unlucky man, make us ask: which are the passions that move the world? Why do we kill?
