«El laberinto de las aceitunas» is the humor and mystery novel by Eduardo Mendoza, published by Seix Barral in paperback (254 pages, in Spanish).
The unnamed detective, confined in an asylum, is brought out of his seclusion by Inspector Flores to investigate the disappearance of a briefcase full of money. The case plunges him into a chain of absurd situations and grotesque characters, as Mendoza turns the police intrigue into a parody of the noir genre and a caricature of society.
It is part of the series «El innombrado detective o El paciente del Doctor Sugrañes», of which it is the second installment.
Aimed at readers who already know the detective from «El misterio de la cripta embrujada» and want to follow his madcap investigations.
Novelista barcelonés, premio Cervantes 2016, autor de La verdad sobre el caso Savolta, La ciudad de los prodigios y Sin noticias de Gurb.
