Quick take
This book is halfway between a thriller and a journalistic chronicle. A novel about the primal guilt that comes with being a mother.
Synopsis
A mother kills her twins. Another woman, the narrator, is about to give birth. She is a writer and realises that she knows the woman who killed the children. An obsession is triggered. She takes a leave of absence, not to nurture her baby, but to write. To investigate the hidden truth behind the crime.
About the author
Katixa Agirre (Gasteiz - Euskadi, 1981). I started writing short stories and reading them to my classmates at a very young age, just for fun, and for some reason I thought this was something everybody did. It was not until the age of fifteen that I started winning literary contests at school and began taking it a bit more seriously. I published my first short story book in 2007
and I haven’t stopped since.
