- Synopsis
- "With frenetic pace and a hypnotic plot, Urgent Matters is an essential read." --Agustina Bazterrica, author of Tender is the FleshAn electric Argentinian thriller featuring a deadly train crash, two unidentified bodies, and a missing murder suspect--perfect for fans of Attica Locke and Steph ChaThe Americans are more astute when it comes to matters like these. They say &“not guilty&”. They don&’t say &“innocent&”. Because as far as innocence goes, no one can make that claim.A train crashes in the suburbs of Buenos Aires, leaving forty-three fatalities, two of which have not been identified. A prayer card of Saint Expeditus, the patron saint of urgent matters, flutters above the wreckage.Hugo, a criminal on the run for murder, is on the train. He seizes his chance to sneak out of the wreckage unsuspected, abandoning his possessions – and, he hopes, his identity – among bodies mangled beyond recognition.As the police descend on the scene, only grizzled Detective Domínguez sees a link between the crash and his murder case. Soon, he&’s on Hugo&’s tail. But he hasn&’t banked on everything from the media to his mother-in-law getting in the way.
