Set against the backdrop of a struggling Spanish town, the narrative begins with the unsettling discovery of a corpse in the marshes, reflecting the community's despair following an economic collapse. The protagonist, Esteban, grapples with personal and financial ruin, burdened by his mute father's care and betrayal by a close friend. The novel unfolds through Esteban's intense monologues, interwoven with other poignant voices that explore themes of ruin, prostitution, and loss, creating a haunting tapestry of human suffering and resilience.
