ENGLISH DESCRIPTION It's time for Olimpia Wimberly to learn the truth about her past. It's time for you to meet Olimpia. Mar?a Frisa returns with a novel full of twists, tension, and secrets buried in a luxurious past. Trying to stop Olimpia Wimberly is as absurd as trying to stop a moving train with your head. For years she has overseen a clandestine team in charge of solving crises that neither the police nor the FBI can solve. But for the first time, after a mission, she ends up at the hospital. There an old man on the verge of death recognizes her. He is an undocumented man without fingerprints who has just escaped from the cabin where he has been held hostage for the last thirty years. Who is he? How does he know her? Does he confuse her with someone else? Olimpia decides to investigate the stranger and discover what he is hiding. However, she doesn't imagine that, for this, she will have to delve into the wounds of the past that she even hides from herself. Mar?a Frisa once again proves her ability to tense plots and to introduce unexpected twists and turns. In this story, she takes us from the highest levels of current Washington D.C. to the New York of the 80s in an atmosphere of luxury, debauchery, forbidden love, and unspeakable secrets.
