It begins with two disappearances: that of a deaf boy from a small town in Guatemala, and of Clara, the daughter of a rich banker and kindly tyrant. Is there a connection between the disappearances? What roles do Clara's lover and family lawyer, her bodyguards, and the doctors in a shady hospital play in it? Can any form of love and justice exist amidst violence? Los sordos is a absorbing thriller and a ruthless portrait of today's Guatemala.
"Los sordos se inicia con dos desapariciones: la de un nino sordo en un pueblo del interior guatemalteco y la de Clara, hija de un banquero rico y "amable tirano". Hay alguna conexion entre ambos hechos? Que papel juegan Javier, amante de Clara y abogado de la familia, los guardaespaldas de Clara y de su padre, y los medicos que dirigen un hospital de practicas sospechosas? Es posible aun alguna forma de amor y de justicia en medio de la violencia? Un apasionante thriller que es tambien un retrato implacable de la Guatemala actual."--Page 4 of cover.
