Deliciously provocative. Five interlocking stories about passion, games, creation and sentiments; about human relationships. Narcis Presas, approaching sixty years old has retired to a mansion in the woods with the intention of killing Amanieu de Palol, the lead in a series of historical novels that has made him into a best-selling author. Before he can manage it a lover from twenty years earlier turns up at the house with a surprising offer: she’ll be his slave, forever.
A novel full of unexpected twists and unusual situations, magnificently constructed.
“Weaving a thread of suspense with a Paul Auster-like influence, Carreras constructs a story of human relationships involving love, hate, power, submission, role play and creation.” La Vanguardia
