La Luna Roja

Turkish writer Emin Kemal was in the midst of a career decline when he dies under strange circumstances. Implicated in the writers death, his Spanish translator finds himself caught up in a plot that will force him to uncover his own past and the life of Emin Kemal in Istambul; and in the center stands an ambitious woman neither of them can escape. This novel by Premio Alfaguara Luis Leante is a carefully crafted house of mirrors, a disquieting tale of the role identity and literature play in our existence. It is a story of secrets and passions, of the love for books, for stories, for storytelling.
