"A case for private investigator Ricardo Cupido"--Front cover
Translated from the Spanish.
Summary:
"Captain Olmedo, a high-ranking colonel in the army who is in charge of dismantling the city's military headquarters, is found dead in his house, shot through the chest with a bullet from his own gun. All the evidence points to suicide and it's an open and shut case as far as the authorities are concerned. However, his daughter Marina, refusing to believe her proud and conscientious father capable of such an act, hires private detective Ricardo Cupido to find out what really happened. Cupido and his sidekick Alkalino begin to unravel the secrets and tense relationships of those in Marina's and her father's circle: Marina's ex-husband, the colonel's military colleagues, and even the anaesthetist he blamed for his wife's death. All have motive and as Cupido digs deeper uncomfortable truths begin to emerge."--Back cover.
