"A first, prize-winning work of suspense from the internationally acclaimed author of Soldiers of Salamis. Melchor Marâin is a young cop from the big city, Barcelona. But he is also an outsider. The son of a prostitute, Melchor went to prison as a teenager, convicted of working for a Colombian drug cartel. Behind bars, he read a book that changed his life: Les Misâerables.
