Manel Loureiro makes a definitive transition into the thriller genre with his new novel, winner of the 2024 Fernando Lara Award.
Trapped in Ons, a small island off the Galician Atlantic coast, Roberto Lobeira has no chance of reaching the mainland or communicating with the outside world due to a storm that seems to be the prelude to a tragedy. When he discovers a bundle that the waves have carried to the shore, its contents cause the few inhabitants living on the island to unleash decades of resentment, jealousy, old scores to settle, and a thirst for revenge. And, as if that were not enough, a mysterious and lurking presence leaves a bloody offering at his doorstep, as if it were an enigmatic message he cannot understand. Immersed in a whirlwind of hatred, unspeakable secrets, and unbridled ambition, Lobeira will have to survive on the island... until the storm passes.
