Publisher's Summary

A través de los ojos de mujeres de distintas condiciones, Melba Escobar narra una Colombia en la cual los ideales sucumben ante la corrupción y el dinero.

Relaciones de poder y machismo, y la metáfora del cuerpo de la mujer y la belleza como medio para escalar en la sociedad, son dibujadas por las voces de las protagonistas, la esteticista Karen Valdés y la psicoanalista Claire Danvert, las cuales se conocen en un afamado salón de belleza de Bogotá donde trabaja Karen.

Bogotá es el telón de fondo de esta novela negra, una historia de crimen, injusticia y desesperanza donde las vidas y la lucha de las protagonistas se mezclan con su intento de descifrar el asesinato de una adolescente.

Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.
