Una noche de diciembre, un cadaver yace en el suelo de la habitacion 622 del Palace de Verbier, un hotel de lujo en los Alpes suizos. La investigacion policial no llegara nunca a termino y el paso del tiempo hara que muchos olviden lo sucedido. Anos mas tarde, el escritor Joel Dicker llega a ese mismo hotel para recuperarse de una ruptura sentimental. No se imagina que terminara investigando el viejo crimen, y no lo hara solo: Scarlett, la bella huesped y aspirante a novelista de la habitacion contigua, lo acompanara en la busqueda mientras intenta aprender tambien las claves para escribir un buen libro.

?Que sucedio aquella noche en el Palace de Verbier? Es la gran pregunta de este thriller diabolico, construido con la precision de un reloj suizo. Joel Dicker nos lleva finalmente a su pais natal para narrarnos una investigacion policial en la que se mezclan un triangulo amoroso, juegos de poder, traiciones y envidias en una Suiza no tan tranquila, donde la verdad es muy distinta a todo lo que hayamos imaginado.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The little prince of contemporary noir detective novels, the brattish child of the literary industry (GQ) is back: Joel Dicker’s new thriller is his most personal novel yet.

MORE THAN 9 MILLION READERS ARE NOW #AddictedToDicker

Winner of the Prix Goncourt des Lyceens, Grand Prix du Roman de l'Academie Francaise, and was shortlisted for the Prix Goncourt; he also won the Que Leer Award, San Clemente Award.

One December night, a dead body lies on the floor of a luxury hotel room in the Swiss Alps. The police investigation will never come to an end, and as time passes everyone will forget what happened. Years later, the writer Joel Dicker arrives at that same hotel to recover from a broken heart. Yet he has no idea that he will end up investigating the old crime, and he will not do it alone: Scarlett, the beautiful guest and aspiring novelist in the room next door will accompany him on the search while also trying to learn the keys to writing a good book.

What happened that night at the Palace of Verbier? That is the big question in this devilish thriller, built with the precision of a Swiss watch. Joel Dicker finally takes us to his native country to narrate a police investigation that mixes a love triangle, power games, betrayals, and envy in a not-so-calm Switzerland, where the truth is very different from anything we could have imagined.
