Summary:
"Una tarde, cuando Roberto Lanza se dispone a recoger a su hijo de cinco años a la salida de un colegio madrileño, la profesora le pide explicaciones sobre una sospecha de pedofilia que ha provocado algo que ha dicho el niño. Este es el desencadenante de una historia híbrida entre el thriller psicológico, la novela de corte social y una trama de estirpe kafkiana con un ritmo frenético y alta tensión narrativa. El entorno juzga sin pruebas y la culpa se cierne sobre la vida del protagonista, como en El proceso, convirtiéndola en un repentino infierno donde ni el amor ni las amistades son territorio seguro. En el patio del colegio cualquier comentario es fuente de paranoia en la psique compleja y atípica de Roberto Lanza. La encrucijada que se le ofrece lo lleva por caminos de alto riesgo y decisiones que casi nadie entendería." -- Pagina 4 de portada.
"One afternoon, when Roberto Lanza is about to pick up his five-year-old son at the exit of a Madrid school, the teacher asks him for explanations about a suspicion of pedophilia that has caused something the child said. This is the trigger for a hybrid story between a psychological thriller, a social novel and a Kafkaesque plot with a frenetic pace and high narrative tension.The environment judges without evidence and guilt hangs over the life of the protagonist, as in The Trial, turning it in a sudden hell where neither love nor friendships are safe territory. In the schoolyard any comment is a source of paranoia in the complex and atypical psyche of Roberto Lanza. The crossroads that is offered to him takes him through high-risk paths and decisions that almost no one would understand." -- Page 4 of cover.
