El hotel de cristal

El hotel de cristal

Mandel, Emily St. John

Vincent is a waitress at the Caiette Hotel, a five-star glass and wood palace on Vancouver Island, where her mother disappeared when she was a child. The hotel owner, Jonathan Alkaitis, tips Vincent and that marks the beginning of a life together. However, the appearance of a disturbing message on the hotel window will endanger the happiness of the new couple. Thirteen years later, the mysterious disappearance of a woman at sea is intertwined with the discovery of a pyramid scam and drags the lives of Vincent and Alkaitis into a whirlpool that neither of them will be able to control and where nothing is what it seems. Between ships, Manhattan skyscrapers and the wilderness of Vancouver Island, the characters move like ghosts in this dazzling portrait of greed, reconciliation with the past and the search for the meaning of life in a chaotic world.
