A espaldas de la ley

Caribbean coast. Dry season. Distant steel drums. A headless corpse bobs in a hot tub. Local authorities insist a petty criminal is to blame, but the police chief suspects a more sinister plot, rekindling a complicated childhood friendship. Schenkel’s sun-drenched noir simmers with island intrigue.
