Angela lives isolated, or perhaps barricaded, in her family's home in a village in southern Spain after spending her adventurous youth in London. The townspeople consider her just a crazy woman who lives with her two dogs in this house where two times meet: the present and the past. All that Angela has are her ghosts, the memory of the love that she lived through the sweet and the bitter in the English capital, but things change when she and her friend Ibrahima find the body of the richest man in the village hanging from a branch of a walnut tree, as Angela begins to dig up old family secrets, which reveal to her what Death and life did to her family and her suicidal town. It offers us a sad and exciting story about freedom and the human ability to resist. Forbes magazine said it was "a novel with a long impact".
