One in Spanish: Sentimental Chronicle in Red.

When she, a middle-aged judge from Barcelona, found a recently-cut young woman's breast at her beach apartment, she didn't know yet she was going to bring back to life a whole story of ambitions, underground agreements and secrets kept for years by upper-class families. A sarcastic, direct, bittersweet novel, revealing the entrails of the up and downtown of the Catalan capital, elegantly paced until the final surprise. Novel to be read in one night and remembered for a thousand.
