The Bullet Inside Me" A Novel

Acclaimed Argentine thriller writer Gustavo Eduardo Abrevaya (The Sanctuary) returns with a harrowing tale of society in decay. After a five-year-old girl disappears under mysterious circumstances, Federico " El Pampa" Bazá n, a sub-inspector with the Federal Police, is tasked with tracking her down. A man of devious talents and numerous nicknames, Pampa is a lone wolf who' s used to getting his hands dirty, but nothing has prepared him for this descent into a hellish underworld of corrupt officials, bloodthirsty security forces, and marauding bands of corpse-looting hooligans, where paranoia and betrayal are constant companions and justice is a dim memory. Set in Argentina during the 1978 World Cup, a time when the genocidal dictatorship has abandoned all ethical boundaries, and the " disappeared" are brutally disposed of in a raging inferno dubbed the garbage dump, The Bullet Inside Me is a frightening journey through desperation, instinct, and survival, where only the most brutal live to see another day.
