“When you reach hell, tell the devil I’m the one who sent you.”
So begins this gripping novel where mystery, friendship, humour, and eroticism intertwine in late 19th-century Madrid.
Eugenia Alonso, a brilliant and unconventional medical student, is confronted with a string of strange murders: young, handsome, poor men are found dead across different neighbourhoods of the capital. There’s no clear cause of death, no trace of poison—only a strange, lingering scent left on their skin.
Amid eccentric characters, unexpected situations, and experiments in her own laboratory, Eugenia delves into an investigation that will reveal the darkest side of desire and perversion.
Every crime hides a secret, but the heart conceals the darkest enigma of all.
Perfect for fans of historical thrillers and crime fiction who enjoy solving unusual cases.
A must-read for readers of The Alienist by Caleb Carr, Carmen Mola’s novels, or fans of films like Sherlock Holmes and Enola Holmes.
