Las Costuras del Agua

In the glittering world of haute couture, where luxury and elegance shine as brightly as the lies hidden between stitches, a fatal tragedy shakes a prestigious Italian family. The death of the patriarch, the famous designer Cesare Interlenghi, on a mysterious stormy night, leaves behind a trail of unanswered questions. Was it a simple accident or a meticulously planned murder? While Inspector Alvise Malatesta works to solve the enigma of the case, each member of the Interlenghi clan faces his own demons: some cling to their social status, others run away from their responsibilities, and some, in their struggle for survival, even betray those they love the most. In an atmosphere where appearances are everything, the truth becomes a luxury that few can afford. Water, omnipresent and stealthy, is witness to all these events. From the incessant rain that hides a wrecked car in Brescia, to the meandering canals of Venice and stormy Parisian nights, water flows through the pages of this novel, revealing and silencing truths as the characters struggle to survive in an environment that can be as destructive as it is seductive.
