Con su inconfundible marca de ritmo fren???tico y originalidad, Miguel Conde-Lobato ambienta esta novela en su Galicia natal, dotando el pueblo imaginario de Estela de los encantos de la regi???n y de las pesadillas de aquellos lugares peque???os en los que todos conf???an -quiz??? demasiado- en los dem???s. Hasta que dejan de hacerlo. UN PUEBLO COSTERO DE GALICIA UN ASESINO VIOLENTO Y SIN ESCR???PULOS ???PUEDE EL MIEDO MARCARTE PARA SIEMPRE? Estela siempre ha sido una localidad pr???spera y tranquila, tan llena de prejuicios como de viento y niebla. Sus habitantes, acostumbrados a vivir de espaldas a los problemas del mundo, nunca pensaron que llegar???a una tragedia que oscurecer???a aquel lugar m???s que su habitual clima. La sombra cae sobre Estela el d???a que hallan la cabeza de una joven con un extra???o tatuaje en la frente. Cuando aparecen nuevas v???ctimas, la peque???a ciudad se estremece ante la idea de que uno de sus vecinos quiz??? sea un asesino en serie. Ed???n lleva un tiempo suspendida de su puesto como polic???a judicial de la Guardia Civil, cuando recibe una llamada. Ahora la necesitan, y r???pido. En una sociedad obsesionada con la belleza y la imagen, solo ella es capaz de observar muy de cerca a las personas y descubrir la verdad de los dem???s, su bondad esencial o la profundidad de su maldad, aunque para ello tenga que mirar al peligroso y aterrador abismo de lo humano. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION With his unmistakably original style and frenetic pace, Miguel Conde-Lobato sets this novel in the Galicia of his birth. The imaginary village of Estela captures the region's native charms but also the dark undercurrents of a small town where the neighbors all trust each other - perhaps a little too much. A SEASIDE VILLAGE IN GALICIA A VIOLENT AND AMORAL KILLER CAN FEAR LEAVE ITS MARK ON YOU FOREVER? Estela has always been a prosperous and peaceful place, characterized as much by its prejudice as its windy and misty weather. Its inhabitants, used to turning their backs on the world's problems, never expected tragedy to darken the atmosphere more than the habitual dreary climate. A shadow descends on Estela the day the severed head of a young girl is found with a strange tattoo on her forehead. When new victims appear, the village is shaken at the prospect that one of its residents could be a serial killer. Ed???n is on suspension from her position with the Civil Guard's judicial police when she gets a call. They need her back, and fast. In a society obsessed with beauty and appearances, she has the unique ability to study other people and recognize their true nature, their essential goodness or the depths of their evil. To do so, however, she must stare into humanity's dangerous and terrifying abyss.
