Henry is a successful writer. He is classy, generous and very dangerous. Henry is actually an unscrupulous hochstapler who has secured an extremely comfortable life for himself.
Henry Hayden, a seemingly successful writer, lives a comfortable life with his wife Martha, who writes brilliant novels but hides them under her bed, not wanting fame. Henry, an unscrupulous con artist, appropriates her manuscripts and publishes them under his own name, building a career on lies. His lover Betty, an employee of the publishing house, becomes pregnant, jeopardizing Henry's carefully constructed life. Faced with the threat of exposure, Henry devises a plan to eliminate Betty, but makes a fatal mistake that sets off a chain of events.
The novel, set in contemporary Germany, follows Henry as he becomes entangled in a web of lies, trying to maintain control. Characters such as Obradin, a Serbian fisherman, Honor, a secretary who reads tarot, and Jenssen, a persistent investigator, further complicate the plot. Arango skillfully weaves the suspense of a thriller with a psychological portrait of a man who loses the distinction between truth and fiction. Dark humor, unexpected twists, and questions about morality and the consequences of lies make the story compelling. Published in 2014, the novel was praised as a modern German crime thriller that transcends genre, exploring the destructive power of deception.
