‘A startling psychological mystery’ Michael Greenberg
Benjamín Chaparro is a man haunted by his past. A retired detective, he remains obsessed with the decades-old case of the rape and murder of a young woman in her own bedroom.
As he revisits the details of the investigation, he is reacquainted with his similarly long, unrequited love for Irene Hornos, then just an intern, now a respected judge.
Set in the Buenos Aires of the 1970s, The Secret in Their Eyes reveals the underpinnings of Argentina’s Dirty War, and asks what justice really means. And it explores the boundaries of love in all its forms: adoration, devotion and, finally, obsession.
