What the tide conceals
Aboard the Giralda, a schooner on which a gala dinner is about to be held, Judith Plombo, a wealthy businesswoman and president of the tennis club that owns the ship, is found dead, stabbed to the heart. The body is in her cabin, locked from the inside, and the murder weapon is nowhere to be found. A classic “locked room” case, entrusted to Valentina Redondo, a Civil Guard lieutenant. It's a complex investigation that leads her to uncover the hidden secret of Santander's high society, as she tries to figure out who the murderer might be. An enthralling murder mystery that pays tribute to the great masters of the genre, from Edgar Allan Poe to Agatha Christie, in which, to solve the mystery, all pieces of the puzzles must be placed in their right place.
