The first night Dr. Lucas Denvurg spends in his new apartment, he encounters something unexpected that prevents him from falling asleep and forgetting the reason for his move: a woman is crying on the other side of the wall. How does one react to an unknown cry? He gently knocks on the wall and whispers words of comfort. A strange and dependent bond forms between them.

His neighbor is María Noriega, who has just lost her husband—the writer Baltasar Mugaritz—in a controversial accident. She knows that grief takes time to fade, but the distrust born from what fate has in store for her seems insurmountable. When the wall between them finally falls, he will guide her toward unraveling the mystery surrounding the writer’s work.

A gripping novel that invites us to confront the past in order to experience the most unexpected love story.
