Summary

Un pirata informático que se infiltra en el Vaticano. Una iglesia barroca, en Sevilla, que mata para defenderse. Tres pintorescos malvados que aspiran a mantener viva la copla española. Una bella aristócrata andaluza. Un apuesto sacerdote-agente especialista en asuntos sucios. Un banquero celoso y su secretario ludópata. Una septuagenaria que bebe Coca-cola. La tarjeta postal de una mujer muerta un siglo atrás. Y el misterioso legado del capitán Xaloc, último corsario español, desaparecido frente a las costas de Cuba en 1898.

Con esos ingredientes, Arturo Pérez-Reverte construye en La piel del tambor una ingeniosa, compleja y fascinante trama novelesca. Con su imaginación desbordante, su espectacular dominio de la ingeniería narrativa y de los diversos géneros superpuestos -misterio, policíaco, historia, romanticismo, aventura, folletín- el autor nos sumerge sin aliento en una historia que corta al lector cualquier posible retirada, arrastrándolo a un enigma cuya clave se esconde a la sombra de los viejos muelles del Guadalquivir; donde todavía hoy, en las noches de luna llena, sombras de mujer agitan sus pañuelos y goletas tripuladas por fantasmas siguen zarpando rumbo a las Antillas.

Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Critic reviews

"Una atractiva historia de amor, codicia, fe, traición y asesinato. La Sevilla de Pérez-Reverte seduce a su protagonista y a sus lectores de la misma forma." ( Publishers Weekly)
" La piel del tambor es una de esas inusuales novelas de suspense que trascienden el género." ( Time Magazine)

Que vas al grano Arturo!

Este libro debería haber sido la mitad de la longitud, y todo ese rollo para un final así, no te pierdas el tiempo
