I'm not sure what I think of this book. I love the Shadow of the Wind by the same author. This is the story of David Martin a writer in Barcelona who ends up accepting a very dangerous deal with a publisher no one has ever heard of. the story started out normal but then it got odd and I really don't know about the ending. The book leaves you hanging about what is and isn't real in it. Interesting but not as good as his previous book in my opinion.
