Set in a village in rural Spain, it narrates the just over thirty hours following the death of the cacique who has dominated it for years. Through dialogues and choral situations, it portrays the local powers-that-be, faint-hearted and selfish, as they try to adjust to the power vacuum.

A read for those who appreciate contemporary Spanish fiction and social portraits set in rural environments.
