La rey

Blanca Rosa González was thirteen years old when she was raped for the first time. Her father had sent her to live with grandmother Candida and her partner, El Recio, in Ciudad del Este. She took two things with her from her adolescence: the systematic abuse and an obsidian stone kept by her grandmother, a sort of magic amulet that transported her to other worlds. Once settled in Villa 31 in the city of Buenos Aires, Blanca began her transformation through the sale of drugs, until she became the head of a gang of Paraguayan drug traffickers. This is how Rey was born. But things get complicated and she has to flee to Spain, where she falls prey to a human trafficking network and is forced into prostitution. There she will be involved in a violent plot that will link her to the Museum of Natural Sciences in Madrid, where a valuable obsidian mirror is kept, which will help her find the keys to her past. In this new novel, Reynaldo Sietecase deepens his unique style, which mixes the thriller, detective, and current affairs genres, to offer us a vibrant story that begins in Ciudad del Este, passes through Buenos Aires, and ends in Madrid, with a character so powerful that readers will not be able to forget about her.
