The Best Enemy
A former editor of Nuestro Tiempo magazine has been murdered, apparently during the course of a burglary gone wrong, but investigative reporter Verónica Rosenthal has her doubts. She becomes increasingly convinced that her old boss’s death was connected to his investigation of a high-level corruption scandal, a complex web of deceit and power.
A gripping tale of intrigue, gradually revealing a scandal that involves influential Argentine businessmen connected to an Israeli war criminal. But it also has a compelling personal angle, as Verónica, now older and wiser, faces an unwanted pregnancy, marital woes and concerns about her father’s health.
Sergio Olguín was born in Buenos Aires in 1967 and was a journalist before turning to fiction. Olguín has won a number of awards and his books have been translated into German, French and Italian.
