Description
A gripping crime thriller set against the backdrop of Argentina's tumultuous past. Inspector Joaquín Alzada is forced to confront his own involvement in one of the darkest periods in Argentinian history when a dead body lands in a skip behind the morgue and a woman from one of the city's wealthiest families goes missing. Twenty years earlier, Alzada's revolutionary brother Jorge was disappeared under the brutal military dictatorship. Now, as economic crisis and riots build in the streets of Buenos Aires, Alzada is determined to rescue his brother, no matter the cost. As he delves deeper into the case, old wounds are reopened and a powerful crime novel unfolds. With its likeable, self-aware protagonist and evocative portrayal of Argentina's modern history, Repentance is a tale with many layers, many of them painful to evoke.
