What you need to know before your trail

A former editor of Nuestro Tiempo magazine has been murdered, apparently during the course of a burglary gone wrong, but investigative reporter Veronica Rosenthal has her doubts. She becomes increasingly convinced that her old boss’s death was connected to his investigation of a high-level corruption scandal, a complex web of deceit and power. A gripping tale of intrigue, gradually revealing a scandal that involves influential Argentine businessmen connected to an Israeli war criminal. But it also has a compelling personal angle, as Veronica, now older and wiser, faces an unwanted pregnancy, marital woes and concerns about her father’s health.

Travel Guide

Israel, Tel Aviv, Buenos Aires

A novel that is evoked much stronger in Argentina, but the thread of the story in Israel is extremely high level. Buenos Aires is the home of the investigative reporter Veronica Rosenthal who is investigating the case.

These two locations aren’t often in novels together and they are uniquely placed given this story. An Israel war crime and a Buenos Aires corruption case.
