O knihe

This second book of the Andalusian Mystery Series finds DI Leon Prado with his translators, American videographer Amanda Salisbury and ex British soldier Phillip Armitage, continue their hunt for a criminal mastermind and find themselves personally involved in a disturbing case set in the world of bullfighting.
Diego Romero is the youthful star of Spain's premier league of toreros-bullfighters. He's deeply worried about the future of his art form. Public opinion is demanding that this ancient cultural activity is banned-or at least transformed. Diego, backed by the might of two of bullfighting's most enduring dynasties, proposes an updated version with no bloodletting or killing, but the Royal Taurino Society-the powerful bullfighting watchdog-insists on retaining its beloved death in the afternoon. Their conflict comes to a head at the Pedro Romero Festival in Ronda where Diego discovers that a more sinister group is also desperate to block his modernizing agenda.
