Add to basketNueva obra póstuma de Javier Reverte, una adictiva novela negra ambientada en el Madrid del tardofranquismo.
Madrid, Navidad de 1967. Un grupo de fanáticos ultraderechistas empieza a atacar clubes de homosexuales. El comisario Valor, un héroe militar de la Guerra Civil en la cincuentena, alcohólico, aficionado al boxeo y clandestinamente homosexual, tomará las riendas de la investigación junto con su mano derecha, el inspector Sánchez. Pronto darán con una banda delincuente con un objetivo muy concreto: hacer cumplir la Ley de Vagos y Maleantes, que persigue la disidencia sexual, por cualquier medio posible, incluyendo la intimidación y la violencia. Pero ¿quiénes dirigen esa banda? ¿Y qué estará dispuesto a arriesgar el comisario Valor para desmantelarla?
En la nueva obra póstuma de Javier Reverte, el lector se encuentra con una envolvente novela negra ambientada en el Madrid del tardofranquismo. Una trama plagada de intriga, con conciencia social y un contexto histórico perfectamente reflejado que informa también sobre nuestro presente más inmediato.
Autor de una extensa obra, Javier Reverte (Madrid, 1944-2020) cultivó la poesía, la biografía, la novela y, en especial, la literatura de viajes, de la que sin duda fue el autor más destacado de las letras españolas. Entre sus obras de este último género, resaltan las que tratan de sus periplos africanos, que comenzaron con El sueño de África (1996), un texto que no ha cesado de reeditarse desde entonces y que ha vendido más de un cuarto de millón de ejemplares. Otras narraciones viajeras incluyen sus navegaciones por tierras y mares polares, por ríos como el Amazonas y el Yukón, y por países como Irlanda, China, Argelia y Grecia, así como sus diarios de sus largas estancias en Roma y Nueva York. En su narrativa destaca la Trilogía Trágica de España (Banderas en la niebla, El tiempo de los héroes y Venga a nosotros tu reino), obras centradas en la Guerra Civil y en los primeros años del franquismo.
Plaza & Janés ha publicado póstumamente la novela Hombre al agua; sus memorias, Queridos camaradas, y su último libro de viajes, La frontera invisible.
