Marina (Vintage) (Spanish Edition)

When Óscar suddenly disappears, no one hears from him for seven days and seven nights. In 1980s Barcelona, Óscar Drai is a daydreamer captivated by the modernist mansions near his boarding school. During one of his escapes, he meets Marina, a girl in delicate health. She takes him to a cemetery where they witness a macabre ritual that occurs without fail on the last Sunday of each month. At ten in the morning, a woman dressed in black descends from her carriage and places a single rose on an unmarked tomb. When they decide to follow her, Óscar and Marina embark on an adventure that draws them into a painful mystery from the city's past. A mysterious figure from the postwar period undertook an unimaginable challenge, but his ambition led him down sinister paths whose consequences someone must still pay for today.
