An editorial assignment sets urban-art specialist Alejandra Varela on the trail of Sniper, a mysterious graffiti artist and promoter of activities bordering on illegal--with sometimes fatal results. Her attempts to figure out the lone hunter's next target of the lonely hunter's will take Varela from Madrid to Lisbon, and from there to Verona and Naples.The novel is an electrifying thriller, a formidable duel of the minds, and a daring game between hunter and pray, where time is of no import when there are still accounts to be settled. El francotirador paciente is also a remarkable reflection on the role of art and its value in our times, something the author has touched upon in previous novels such as El pintor de batallas and La tabla de Flandes."There is always something epic in my novels, a certain class of hero. In this sense, El francotirador paciente does not deviate from this terrain. The world of graffiti is a very interesting setting and it also has the unique component of urban warfare and adventure... This time I have taken my usual characters to a contemporary and very current territory," said the author.
