Synopsis

How to face those who handle power in the shadows? How to take revenge on those who hurt you most? Melchor Marin comes back. And he returns to Barcelona, where he is claimed to investigate a glare case: they are blackmailing the city's mayor with a sexual video. Carried with his regret for not having found his mother's killers, but also with his inflexible sense of justice and his rocky moral integrity, Melchor must dismount an extortion that is not known to pursue the simple economic benefit or political destabilization, and to do so, he enters into the circles of power, a place where cynicism, unscrupulous ambition and corrupt brutality reign. Over there, this absorbing and wild novel, populated by a pleade of memorable characters, becomes a demolishing portrait of the political-economic elite of Barcelona, but above all in a furious argument against the tyranny of the owners of money and the masters of the world.
