«Touch» is the mystery novel by Elmore Leonard, published by Ediciones B in paperback (336 pages, in Spanish).
Juvenal works at an alcohol rehabilitation center in Detroit and suddenly becomes the center of attention: some say he has powers, others claim to have seen stigmata on his hands, and a woman insists she regained her sight after talking to him. Juvenal does not seek publicity, but charlatans and preachers like Bill Hill and August Murray see in him a unique opportunity to gain followers and strike it rich.
Originally published in 1987; the cover of this edition includes the motto «Prepárate para un milagro».
For readers of crime and mystery fiction who enjoy stories about faith, miracles, and the exploitation of others' credulity.
Elmore John Leonard Jr. was an American novelist, short story author and screenwriter. He was, according to British journalist Anthony Lane, "hailed as one of the best crime writers in the land". His earliest novels, published in the 1950s, were Westerns, but he went on to specialize in crime fiction and suspense thrillers, many of which have been adapted into motion pictures. Among his best-known works are Hombre, Swag, City Primeval, LaBrava, Glitz, Freaky Deaky, Get Shorty, Rum Punch, Out of Sight and Tishomingo Blues.
