Chief Inspector Max Camara of the Cuerpo Nacional de Policia has rather a lot on his plate. A renowned local paella chef and restaurant owner went missing and then his body turned up in the sea. It's the eve of the Pope's visit to Valencia and there are threats against a local abortion clinic. The mayor and the town hall are set on demolishing El Cabanyal, the colourful fisherman's quarter on the seafront, to make way for modern development. To cap it all some ominous cracks have suddenly appeared in the walls of his flat. Well, he thinks they've suddenly appeared, but he's not quite certain. It's not exactly what you might call a ''home''.

We first met Jason Webster when we reviewed [[Sacred Sierra: A Year on a Spanish Mountain by Jason Webster|Sacred Sierra: A Year on a Spanish Mountain]]. It's worth a read. For more of crime set in Spain we can recommend [[Blood Wedding by P J Brooke]] and [[A Darker Night by P J Brooke|A Darker Night]] by the same author.
