Mérida, Mexico. The night of Hanal Pixán, the Maya Day of the Dead. On the Peraza family altar, someone has lit one candle too many.
By morning, Ramiro Peraza, patriarch of an old family in the Santiago quarter, lies dead in the parlor of his colonial mansion. Beside the body burns a candle no one admits to lighting. From the door, a trail of barefoot prints in red earth leads out of the house… and never comes back.
Detective Itzel Canché of the Yucatán Prosecutor's Office doesn't believe in ghosts. But the dead man's wife, doña Elena, was buried exactly one year ago. Her daughter is lying. Her son owes money to the wrong people. The family doctor signed too many death certificates. And beneath the streets of the historic center run stone passages that appear on no map.
As the investigation sinks, literally, beneath the city, Itzel must face what she has avoided all her life: the story of her own grandmother, a Maya cook who worked in the mansions of Santiago and prayed every night for the dead no one is waiting for.
- A mystery thriller set in real places in Mérida: Santiago, the Casa de Montejo, Paseo de Montejo, the Lucas de Gálvez market, the O'Horán Hospital and the convent of Maní.
- Family secrets, inherited guilt and a living tradition: Hanal Pixán.
- Short chapters and cliffhanger endings that make you turn the page.
Some houses in Mérida never let their dead rest. Tonight, one of them is going to open its door.
