Silent Shadows

Life underground leads to madness, and jealousy to crime.
During the final years of the Franco dictatorship, Aníbal Coloma is forced to flee Spain, pursued not only by the police but also by his former comrades, who accuse him of treason. This story of mistaken revolutionary zeal takes us through Spain, France and the United Kingdom, unfolding as ideological fanaticism leads to madness, and death.
Not your ordinary political thriller, this is a story of persecution and escape, friendship and treason, adulterous love and stylized eroticism.
Silent Shadows is a work of literary fiction by one of Spain's leading literary stylists. It is a novel of ideas and action, in which language itself plays a starring role.
