Terra Alta II

Cercas, Javier

How to confront those who wield power in the shadows? How to get revenge on those who have done you the most harm? Melchor Marín returns. And he returns to Barcelona, where he is called in to investigate a glassy case: they are blackmailing the mayor of the city with a sex video. Burdened with his regret for not having found his mother's murderers, but also with his inflexible sense of justice and his rocky moral integrity, Melchor must dismantle an extortion that it is not known whether it pursues simple economic gain or political destabilization, And to do so, he enters the circles of power, a place where cynicism, unscrupulous ambition and corrupt brutality reign. Over there, this absorbing and wild novel, populated by a plethora of memorable characters, becomes a devastating portrait of Barcelona's political-economic elite, but above all in a furious plea against the tyranny of the owners of money and the masters of the world.
