Summary:

"Bogotá está cruzada por catacumbas. Algunas existen desde tiempos prehispánicos. Otras las socavaron los españoles para esconder el oro que robaron y para huir de sus enemigos. No todas guardan restos humanos. Las guerras civiles del siglo XIX sumaron galerías. La red que forman puede llevar a la cripta de un convento de clausura o a la estación de un metro que nunca funcionó. Kike la recorre con Cassiani. Su tranquilidad reposa en las dos pistolas Jericho 941 FS que carga en los bolsillos de su gabán." -- first paragraph on page 4 of the cover

"Bogotá is crossed by catacombs. Some have existed since pre-Hispanic times. Others were made by the Spanish to hide the gold they stole and to flee from their enemies. Not all of them keep human remains. The civil wars of the 19th century added galleries. The network they form can lead to the crypt of a cloistered convent or to a subway station that never worked. Kike walks through it with Cassiani. His peace of mind rests on the two Jericho 941 FS pistols that he carries in the pockets of his coat." -- cataloger's translation
