El retablo del alma

Jessheim, Oslo, February 2013. The body of a helicopter mechanic, Bjorn Nielsen, is found at the bottom of a lake. The killer has drilled a hole in the center of his forehead, removed his limbic system, and inserted a photograph into the cavity. The image shows the mechanic with a group of children whom Norwegian intelligence identifies as having disappeared more than thirty years earlier. When psychologist Lis de la Serna is contacted to study the case, an investigation begins in which Lis uncovers chilling information about neurological experiments conducted since the beginning of the 20th century on young people with exceptional mental abilities. Experiments whose terrible repercussions continue to this day. But what is the involvement of international health organizations in these events? And who is willing to kill to prevent them from coming to light?
