La chica del lago

Quintana Torres is a successful writer. The media has dubbed her "the new queen of thrillers." During a book signing in Bilbao, a former high school classmate approaches her and hands her a mysterious black envelope. Inside is a photograph of the diary of Alba, the teenager who died under strange circumstances and whose story inspired Quintana's best-known novel: The Girl from the Lake. This discovery leads the writer to cancel her promotional tour and return to her father's old house in Urkizu, the small inland town in the Basque Country where it all happened. It was there that, on Midsummer's Eve in 1999, Alba disappeared forever, taking with her the enigmatic diary she always carried. A thriller in the purest Mikel Santiago style, in which the present-day investigation opens doors that were closed in the past, giving new meaning to everything that happened then. Through a relentless plot, this novel will take the reader through different settings - Bilbao, Madrid and Urkizu - following in the footsteps of a protagonist who faces a secret hidden for years.
