After the snowfall…
After the confession…
After the death…

ONLY SILENCE REMAINS

In Jaca, New Year’s Day dawns with tragedy: the body of Martín Blasco, a young lawyer, has been found in the river. His last message consisted of a single word: Forgive.

Although the crime scene points to a possible suicide, something doesn’t add up. Why would a happy man, who had married just the day before, take his own life? What did he mean with that note of apology? And is there any connection between Martín and the man found frozen in the bathtub of his home?

As the snow blankets the village in white, Gloria Maldonado, the inspector assigned to the case, senses that uncovering the truth will require breaking through the icy layer that has buried the town’s secrets for years—sins that time itself has failed to erase, because they can only be atoned for with death.

With the grip and style of the finest thriller writers, Txemi Parra delivers a compelling mystery that shatters the peace of an idyllic Pyrenean enclave.
