Synopsis:

In a city of decadence and secrets, a gruesome murder leads to a deadly truth hidden in plain sight


When the mutilated body of The Little Mermaid of Ampurias, a famous singer, is discovered gruesomely displayed on the stage of the theater where she performed, Inspector Adolfo Kobler and forensic doctor Miralles are thrust into a chilling investigation. Their unlikely partner? Adoración Venecia—an avant-garde artist, theater impresaria, and exotic dancer.

It’s the Roaring Twenties, and Madrid’s nightlife dazzles with feathers and gold, a world of decadence and illusion. But as the bodies pile up and the murders grow increasingly macabre, the trio is drawn into a darker reality—one filled with sinister superstitions and mysterious books rumored to drive readers to madness. In a city brimming with secrets, a killer may be hiding in plain sight.
