Andres and Marabela don't have a history of the best relationship, so one day he comes home and she is not there and some may not agree with his non reaction, but after their history is explained the reader understands why he may not be so worried.
Set in a time and place where kidnapping wealthy relatives is common and ransoms are serious. Andres ends up hiring someone to talk him through the process and until the very end I couldn't trust this guy - let me know if you could trust him from the beginning? Without spoiling, the book is divided into two parts, the kidnapping and the days after Marabela returns home. I appreciated that the author included this time as to show how life is after the victim returns home and the family must start a new chapter after this horrific episode.
A book out of my comfort zone and sometimes it is nice to read something from left field. One of the hard things about reading this book was the quick change to the past and a story that supports the greater story, but the jump into the past was a little fast. After the back story is shared, there is then a jump to the present.
A book that reminded me of a movie and I could see it clearly on the big screen.
