Los Hechos de Key Biscayne

'What we believe protects us. What we know leaves us adrift.' This is a novel of drifts, uncertainties and transitions. A girl, the narrator, is ceasing to be one. Ricardo, her father, behaves less and less like a father and more like an alligator. Key Biscayne, the island where they have arrived with Nico, the narrator's brother, is a micro-society inhabited by girls who do not seem to be girls, lizards, magnates, celebrities, mobsters and very unconventional families. What exactly happens there? Nothing too serious, apparently. The dangerous thing, in Key Biscayne, is always something else. The plot of natural and personal disasters is precipitated by strange friendships, a Colt revolver, domestic tensions, risky games and some photographs that should never have been taken.
