An award-winning novel from Argentina! A fast-paced coming-of-age thriller: Ámbar follows her father on his quest for revenge through Argentina. 15-year-old Ámbar lives between lonely country roads and run-down motels. At the side of her father Víctor Mondragón, a dangerous gangster, she is used to violence and crime. Instead of going to rock concerts and meeting friends on weekends, she treats Víctor's gunshot wounds or comes up with new cover identities. What is enough for her to live on is a sawed-off rifle, fake passports and the little money she secretly saves for a tattoo. But the deeper she delves into the world and her father's past, the more doubts come to her. Can she really trust him? And will she survive long enough to uncover his secrets? An intense thriller that does not shy away from violence. But in the end, it is Ambar's multi-layered development that really gets under your skin. ELLE (The best mystery / thriller books of 2024)
