A Death in Valencia - Max Camara 2 (Paperback)

Max Camara is feeling low. Ominous cracks have appeared in the walls of his flat; the body of a well-known paella chef has been washed up on the beach; there are rows and threats about abortion clinics; the town hall are set on demolishing El Cabanyal, the colourful fisherman's quarter on Valencia's sea-front. As Camara untangles these threads, he stumbles into a web of corruption and violence, uncovering deep animosities and hidden secrets, and forcing him to question his own doubts and desires. Starring the determined Camara, with his love of flamenco and brandy, and occasional doped-out high, "A Death in Valencia" delves into issues that rouse unruly passions and divide the Spanish people today.
