La Casa del Diablo

La Casa del Diablo is a novel that blurs the line between fact and fiction, combining bold formal experimentation with a fascinating story about guilt and writing, about memory and artistic obsession. Gage Chandler, a renowned author of true crime books, with a film adaptation to his credit, moves to Milpitas, California, to live in the House of the Devil, the macabre scene of a double murder, apparently perpetrated by a group of teenagers. during the height of the Satanic Panic of the 1980s, which received ostensible media interest. The place is now a renovated house where the writer tries to unravel what happened through the obsessive recreation of the crime scene. He will soon see how his story goes from conjecture to the sharp dictation of the ventriloquist voices of his protagonists, being traversed by the ghost of the success of his first book, which will make him question the ethical implications derived from his work and the transcendence in the lives of those involved.
