An unlikeable industrialist is found with his throat slit from ear to ear in an exclusive gated community – or ‘country club’ – near Buenos Aires. The official line is that he killed himself, oddly, in exactly the same way his wife ‘accidentally’ died a few years earlier. So begins the latest darkly comic thriller from Argentina’s bestselling crime writer, Claudia Piñeiro.
