A former CNI agent plans an attack against Europe’s leaders to avenge the death of his son, unaware that every step is bringing him closer to unleashing an even greater threat: an assault capable of plunging Europe into chaos. The new novel by Manel Loureiro, one of the essential voices of Spanish thriller fiction.
A double murder shakes a quiet neighbourhood in Madrid: a six-year-old boy and his nanny are found brutally executed in their own home. But this is no ordinary crime — it is a cruel message directed at Samuel Hoyos, the boy’s father and a former CNI agent.
Months later, trapped in a spiral of self-destruction, Samuel receives a proposal from an enigmatic woman: assassinate every European Union leader during a special summit to be held on the island of La Toja. In exchange, he will receive the names of those directly responsible for his son’s death. With nothing left to lose, he accepts.
Meanwhile, Julia Duarte, a CNI agent, launches a race-against-time investigation. Without realising it, her pursuit brings her not only dangerously close to the mastermind behind the plot, but also to a past she believed long buried. As the pieces begin to fall into place, Duarte discovers that behind the threat lies a complex web of interests, secrets and betrayals in which no one is safe.
After winning the Premio Fernando Lara 2024 with Cuando la tormenta pase, Manel Loureiro returns with a high-voltage thriller that blends action, political conspiracy and a powerful emotional core built around revenge and redemption.
