El humo del muerto

In 1933 Madrid, the most powerful businessmen protect themselves with the magic of primordial deities, yet they kill each other with lead bullets. For decades, Lorena Noira was the city's most feared assassin, until she was cursed by a job she should never have accepted. Now she has given up drinking, smoking, and killing, and works as a private investigator. But her debts are piling up, and her only companion is the smoke-shrouded ghost of her former secretary. Paying the bills doesn't help, given that her curse always seems to kill those around her. The day an elegant, femme fatale enters her office and commissions her to investigate the kidnapping of a famous writer, Noira knows it will end badly for her too, but she can't refuse. After all, what can someone who already believes she has lost everything possibly lose?
