La sonrisa del escorpión

Synopsis of La sonrisa del escorpión

In a palace on a remote island, twelve young people live under the supervision of Cuervo, an automaton professor who instructs them and controls their participation in a sinister game: the Night of the Scorpion. At the end of the day, each player takes on a role, practicing for the final match where they must forge alliances to ensure the killer, known as the scorpion, does not win. They believe they are prepared, but everything changes the night Liliana, who everyone thought died in an accident, crawls out of her grave, turning the twelve participants into thirteen. From that moment, events accelerate: the game begins, and as players start to fall one by one, it becomes clear that the scorpion is not the only one among the thirteen who poses a deadly threat. Celia Añó surprises us with an irresistible intrigue that will captivate fans of locked-room mysteries, detective novels, fantasy, and horror.
