FROM TWO-TIME AMAZON STORYTELLER PRIZE FINALIST, PABLO POVEDA

Madrid has a new kind of justice. His name is Maldonado.

When ex-cop turned private investigator Javier Maldonado takes what looks like a routine surveillance case in Madrid’s elite Salamanca district, he expects easy money.
What he gets is a dead heiress, a staged suicide, and a bullet hole that doesn’t lie.

Now he’s caught between the city’s powerful elite—desperate to bury the truth—and the brutal underworld who’d kill to control it.
In 72 hours, Maldonado must expose a conspiracy rooted in blood money, betrayal, and corruption… or end up another corpse buried in the shadows of Madrid.


Why readers can't put it down:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “I loved the characters, the setting, and the story. Addictive with suspense that keeps you guessing until the end.”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “A well-written story by someone who knows how to craft a detective mystery.”
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “Great procedural, biting humor, quirky characters. Poveda stands alongside many bestselling authors.”

If you love Ian Rankin, Michael Connelly, L.J. Ross, or J.D. Kirk, you'll feel right at home with Maldonado—the sharpest PI to walk Madrid’s rain-slicked streets.
