The following synopsis can be read on the back cover of the book: “The glint of the weapon was reflected in the old thief’s eyes. Isidro Caballero couldn’t believe what he was seeing. It had been difficult to open the stolen briefcase, since the combination was four digits instead of the usual three. However, he hadn’t expected to see what he held in his hands: a sniper rifle disassembled into four pieces, along with a series of documents stored in a black folder.” Thus begins the plot that ensnares its protagonist, a gentleman pickpocket, in a police investigation on the streets of Madrid, where not everything is as it seems and heroes aren’t always on the winning side.
