About the Book

Inquietante, adictiva y perturbadora.

Pablo Rivero regresa con su novela más personal.

Jon lleva veinte años interpretando a un asesino en la serie más longeva de la televisión española y, pese a que la fama y el dinero le acompañan, vive tan atormentado por el personaje que representa que decide abandonarlo todo y retirarse a una casa perdida en un bosque aledaño a un pequeño pueblo. Solo tiene que asegurarse de que nadie se entere de que vive ahí y evitar a toda costa que la prensa y los paparazzi lo arruinen todo. No sospecha que librarse de su alter ego no será tan fácil.

Sin embargo, al poco de instalarse una serie de escabrosos sucesos alterará su tan ansiada tranquilidad y tendrá que luchar por que los secretos que ocultan esos bosques no traigan de vuelta al personaje que tanto teme. Aunque quizá nunca se haya ido.

Pablo Rivero se confirma como un joven talento en el panorama literario actual con este perturbador domestic noir que, como ya hizo con No volveré a tener miedo, nos sumerge en una atmósfera inquietante y magnética que engancha desde la primera página.

«Cuando eres actor te pasas la mayor parte del tiempo intentando impregnar al personaje con tu esencia para que cobre vida. Para que todo lo que hagas resulte veraz. Cuando lo has conseguido y el público no puede imaginárselo de otra manera, cuando ya no puede separarte de él y son incapaces de diferenciar la realidad de la ficción, en lugar de felicitarte por haberlo conseguido y disfrutar, te pasas el día justificándote, haciendo ver a todo el mundo lo muy diferente que eres de él. Recordándoles que lo que han visto no es real, que tú no eres el personaje. Pero ya es demasiado tarde. Por mucho que huyas e intentes desprenderte de tu alter ego, su esencia ya se ha mezclado con la tuya y jamás volverás a ser el mismo. Su sangre corre junto a la tuya por tus venas y la mezcla de ambas te puede llevar a hacer cosas que nunca hubieras imaginado.

Esta es la historia de cómo Jon se convirtió en su personaje, o lo que es lo mismo, de cómo su personaje se adueñó de él y cambió el rumbo de su vida para siempre».

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Unsettling, addictive, and disturbing.

Pablo Rivero returns with his most personal novel yet.

Jon has spent twenty years playing a murderer in the longest running television series in Spain and, despite the fact that he has fame and money, he lives so tormented by the character he plays on TV that he decides to leave everything and retire to a far-away house in a forest in the outskirts of a small town. He just has to make sure that nobody finds out that he lives there and avoid the press and paparazzi at all costs before they ruin everything. He never suspected that getting rid of his alter ego wouldn't be so easy.

However, soon after getting settled, a series of challenging events alters his long-awaited peace and tranquility, and he will have to fight so that the secrets from the forest don't bring back that character he fears so much. Although perhaps he has never left.

Pablo Rivero reaffirms himself as a young talent in the current literary scene with this disturbing domestic noir that, just as he did with No volveré a tener miedo / I Will Not Be Afraid Again, immerses the reader in a disturbing and magnetic ambiance that grabs us from the very first page.

This is the story of how Jon became his character, or what might just be the same, how his character took over him and changed the course of his life forever.
