This new novel by the author of Sixty Kilos, offers an explosive mix of violence and vengeance. Do you dare to read it?
In the year 2000, around Vigo, Spain, an anonymous car salesman receives a beating that ends his life. Since that moment on, his son will only think about revenge. His name is Santiago Esquemas and he will soon become a corrupt and violent policeman.
Ventura Borrás, a sergeant based in Ceuta, has created a solid network of very lucrative illegal activities by making alliances with guys like Gus, a thug who carries on his back all the pain he has caused others.
Willy Ramos, a drug lord who is retiring chooses his successor and gives him one piece of advice: “Be discreet. Always be discreet and do not flaunt your money.” The young heir will forget his mentor’s wise words. Soon a lower-level dealer, eager to make a name for himself, enters the scene, makes a mistake, and soon almost everyone will lose out.
With the mysterious world of cockfighting as a backdrop, La Gallera / The Cockpit is a breath of fresh air for lovers of raw noir genre novels.
