A father''s worst nightmare - Melchor Marín''s teenage daughter has disappeared.

Years have passed since Melchor took revenge for his mother''s murder and at last found peace with his daughter Cosette in the sleepy backwater of Terra Alta.

But their idyll is shattered when one day Cosette, now seventeen, discovers that her father has been concealing the truth of her mother''s death- that she was killed in a hit-and-run "accident" intended to scare Melchor off a case.

Angry and betrayed, Cosette disappears to Mallorca with her friend Elisa. And that''s the last Melchor hears of her. His texts and calls go unanswered, and when she returns alone, Elisa can only say Cosette needed "space to think".

Now the former policeman has no choice but to travel to Port de Pollença, where his daughter was last seen alive, and enter the dark, looking-glass world of Swedish-American billionaire Rafael Mattson.


Translated from the Spanish by Anne McLean
