Publisher's Synopsis
Text in Spanish. Written by the grandson of police commissioner Marcelino Gilibert, this account describes a famous homicide case in Bogot at the beginning of the 20th century. A veil of mystery surrounds the death of Madame High Heels, a small luxury furniture provider for Bogot's high society. While many suspect her husband of killing her for her fortune, inspector Lub-n Bonilla and police commissioner Marcelino Gilibert are not convinced. At moments, this somewhat dark work transcends its own thrilling plot and provides a portrait of the small capital city with all its charm, disappointments, dreams, and corruption.
