Based on a true crime, Laura Restrepo constructs a fiction where the characters do not exist outside the imagined world, but the tragedy of the victim is brutally real. The novel reveals the dark framework behind the crime, delving into the bright and ostentatious world of the Tutti Frutti, five young people from Bogota's high society united by a perverse brotherhood. Through their daily lives, the path that leads to an intolerable transgression is prefigured, an announcement of Armageddon that shakes the resignation and conscience of an entire country.
Laura Restrepo is a Colombian author who began writing what were mainly political columns in her mid-twenties. Her first novel, Isle of Passion, is based on historical deeds that occurred on Clipperton Island.
