Krátky popis
Mexico in the 1970s is a dangerous country, even for Maite, a
secretary who spends her life seeking the romance found in cheap
comic books and ignoring the activists protesting around the city.
When her next-door neighbor, the beautiful art student Leonora,
disappears under suspicious circumstances, Maite finds herself
searching for the missing woman-and journeying deeper into
Leonora's secret life of student radicals and dissidents. 'An
amazing writer' S.A. Cosby, bestselling author of Blacktop
Wasteland and Razorblade Tears Mexico in the 1970s is a politically
fraught land, even for Elvis, a goon with a passion for rock 'n'
roll who knows more about kidney-smashing than intrigue. When Elvis
is assigned to find Leonora, he begins a blood-soaked search for
the woman-and his soul. 'A page-turning read full of colour and
action' THE INDEPENDENT Swirling in parallel trajectories, Maite
and Elvis attempt to discover the truth behind Leonora's
disappearance, encountering hitmen, government agents, and Russian
spies. Because Mexico in the 1970s is a noir, where life is cheap
and the price of truth is high. Velvet Was the Night: an edgy,
simmering historical novel for lovers of smoky noirs and
anti-heroes.
