Summary

Tras El silencio de la ciudad blanca, llega la esperada segunda parte de la trilogía.

Ana Belén Liaño, la primera novia de Kraken, aparece asesinada. La mujer estaba embarazada y fue ejecutada según un ritual de hace 2600 años: quemada, colgada y sumergida en un caldero de la Edad del Bronce.

1992. Unai y sus tres mejores amigos trabajan en la reconstrucción de un poblado cántabro. Allí conocen a una enigmática dibujante de cómics, a la que los cuatro consideran su primer amor.
2016. Kraken debe detener a un asesino que imita los Ritos del Agua en lugares sagrados del País Vasco y Cantabria cuyas víctimas son personas que esperan un hijo.

La subcomisaria Diaz de Salvatierra está embarazada, pero sobre la paternidad se cierne una duda de terribles consecuencias. Si Kraken es el padre, se convertirá en uno más de la lista de amenazados por los Ritos del Agua.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Kraken is back for the second installment in the acclaimed White City Trilogy, and this time he investigates a series of ritualistic murders that target expectant parents, only to find that the key to uncovering the killer may be found in his own past.

A pregnant woman has been murdered in a brutal, ritualistic way: burned, hung, and then placed upside down in a Bronze Age cauldron. When Kraken discovers the victim is his first love, Ana Belén Liaño, memories of their time together come flooding back, and with them reminders of a dark secret long buried. Then the killer strikes again, enacting the same ritual against a second expectant parent. Kraken knows he must confront his past in order to unmask this fiend. And there's no time to waste, because Deputy Superintendent Díaz de Salvatierra has just found out she's carrying a child. And the father could very well be Kraken himself...
