Las Madres / The Mothers

"Inspector Elena Blanco walks across Madrid's Grâua Municipal Mediodâia II lot until she reaches an old minivan expelling a putrid smell. Inside is the dead body of a man tied up to a chair, with a huge coarse seam ascending from his pubis to his abdomen. The autopsy's first results state that this relapsing drug addict had some of his organs pulled out and a seven-month-old fetus placed inside his belly. DNA analysis reveal it is his biological son. A few days later, the Case Analysis Brigade moves to the harbor region of A Coruäna, where a seventy-four-year-old tax advisor has been murdered with the same MO. What connects both victims? And where are the mothers of those babies?"-- Back cover.
