Summary:
"Comienza la década del cincuenta en las orillas del río Uruguay. Entre sus aguas nocturnas, un hombre que se confunde con un animal recorre los kilómetros que separan la costa de Salto y Concordia, dando brazadas incansables. Es el Carpincho López, un infame contrabandista que burla la ley desde hace demasiado tiempo para gusto de los policías de ambos países. Le han encargado transportar a una pareja con un misterioso paquete desde Argentina hasta Uruguay. Un paquete que no debería caer en las manos equivocadas y que su contenido es de suma importancia para el Gobierno argentino, incluido el mismísimo general, Juan Domingo Perón. Entre pulperías y un calor que no da tregua a la tranquilidad de Concordia, Rodolfo Santullo traza esta novela negra que avanza y retrocede en el tiempo, en la que la moral de los personajes se torna ambigua, llevándose en sus páginas tantas vidas como secretos, dejando un rastro de sangre que teñirá de rojo el marrón del río." -- page 4 of the cover
"The 1950s begin on the banks of the Uruguay River. Among its nocturnal waters, a man who is mistaken for an animal travels the miles that separate the coast of Salto and Concordia, taking tireless strokes. He is Carpincho López, an infamous smuggler who has been flouting the law for too long for the police of both countries. You have been tasked with transporting a couple with a mysterious package from Argentina to Uruguay. A package that should not fall into the wrong hands and its content is of utmost importance for the Argentine Government, including the general himself, Juan Domingo Perón. Between grocery stores and a heat that gives no respite to the tranquility of Concordia, Rodolfo Santullo draws this crime novel that moves back and forth in time, which the morals of the characters become ambiguous in, carrying in its pages as many lives as secrets, leaving a trail of blood that will dye the brown of the river red." - - ctaloger's translation
