Autor Juan Carlos Mendez Guedezen Limba Engleză Paperback – 25 iun 2018
Un thriller apasionante, con un personaje entrañable, enamoradizo y divertido que los lectores no podrán olvidar. Caracas es la ciudad más peligrosa del mundo, y allí se ha perdido el rastro de la española Begoña de la Serna, hija díscola de un influyente político conservador. Para averiguar su paradero, la familia de la chica contrata a Magdalena Yaracuy, original detective que para resolver sus casos combina la brujería, las artes marciales y una certera puntería con las armas de fuego. Pero la desaparición de Begoña se complica. Crímenes sanguinarios, grupos paramilitares, secuestradores, narcotraficantes y militares corruptos, rodean el mundo de esta muchacha que quizá ha cometido el error de enterarse de peligrosos secretos en un país aplastado por la escasez, el miedo y la violencia.
