Cercas, Javier

Years after what happened in Independencia, Melchor Marín is no longer a police officer: he works as a librarian and lives with his daughter Cosette, now a teenager. One day, Cosette discovers that her father has hidden from her how her mother died, and this fact confuses and revolts her. Shortly after he goes on vacation to Mallorca, but does not return; He doesn't answer messages or calls from Melchor either, who, convinced that something bad has happened, decides to plant himself on the island in search of her. From here the novel enters an absorbing labyrinth, both sinister and luminous, where Melchor discovers that human beings are capable of the worst, but also the best: that we live surrounded by violence, lies, abuses of power. and cowardice, but there are also people capable of risking everything for a just cause.
