LAS ZAPATILLAS VIETNAMITAS
The notes of “Adiós Nonino”; the tears of Máxima de Holanda during her tryst with Prince William; the photo that she discovers, among the guests, the face of a dangerous activist daughter of a German banker. So begins this frenetic marathon, inspired by xenophobic and ultra-nationalist movements in Europe today. The protagonist will accept a police assignment to uncover the plans of a powerful neo-Nazi organization whose leaders are, like him, marathon runners and who use identical shoes to those given him by his wife, a journalist who has died tragically in the Andes. This is not just a classy and addictive thriller; skillfully and elegantly it combines the best of action and adventure novels with historical fiction, suspense with travel novels - all based on solid research.
