Résumé du livre
In the heart of Madrid, teenager Kira McIness enters a shadowy world of thieves and pickpockets to recover a pair of stolen earrings. There she confronts a formidable adversary, and struggles with Moroccan tradition when -- for mysterious reasons -- the wrong person confesses to the crime.
Against a backdrop of medieval plazas, an American school, and crumbling middle-eastern tenements, Kira must draw inspiration from Francisco Goya's enigmatic artwork to uncover the truth about herself, her obsession with the crime, and whom she can trust before the wrong person is sent away and the facts become forever silent.
