Synopsis

Juan Artolabe is seventy, enormously wealthy, and one of Bizkaia's most powerful businessmen. More than a hundred guests have gathered at Bilbao's Hotel Carlton to celebrate him. Family. Friends. Business associates. The city's elite. Then Artolabe disappears from his own party. By the time he is found in the hotel's men's room, he is dead. For Subinspector Ana Larburu and the Ertzaintza's Criminal Investigation Unit, there is no shortage of suspects. The crime scene has been compromised. The timeline is uncertain. Witnesses contradict one another. And beneath the polished surface of the Artolabe family lie grudges, rivalries, secret relationships, and a bitter struggle over a fortune. But the family is only the beginning. As interviews expose old resentments and forensic evidence opens new lines of inquiry, the investigation leads from Bilbao's wealthiest circles into hidden money trails, questionable business dealings, and criminal connections that extend far beyond the Carlton. Everyone seems to have a motive. The problem is that the evidence refuses to tell a simple story.
