Gunty, Tess

Welcome to La Conejera, a modest apartment block located in Vacca Vale, Indiana, once a thriving, bustling industrial center in the Midwest and now a ghost town. Separated by very thin partitions that do not completely isolate their solitary existences, the most diverse characters live: an obituary writer, a young mother with an unspeakable secret, a septuagenarian who engages her husband in a battle against the neighbors over some rodents. .. and, at the epicenter, shining with her own light, Blandine Watkins, a young woman of ethereal beauty and exceptional intelligence who shares an apartment with three other teenagers, raised like her in failed foster homes, searching like her for something that gives meaning. to their lives. Throughout a sweltering week in July, the stories of the bizarre residents of La Conejera intertwine until they culminate in an unusual act of violence that will turn everything upside down.
