The Depths of the Forest

The Depths of the Forest is the story of a journey to the interior of an impenetrable and imposing landscape, but also into the secrets deep within each of the characters. What ties Marcos, Gloria’s lawyer boyfriend in Madrid, to his university friend Octavio, who leads a strange and disturbing life with an elderly landowner. Gloria appears to have attracted love and admiration in equal measure; the woman who was her co-director at the trendy urban art gallery they owned together, and the passionate sculptor dividing his time between Madrid and a converted studio near the reserve - what was the true extent of their smouldering jealousies. These secrets make each of them a potential perpetrator of the crime and, at the same time, a victim of their own destiny. Nature itself becomes an underlying protagonist to form the background to a novel exuding mystery and tension.
