Ilustrísimo canalla

The journalist Carmina Ferré lifts the carpets of a mafia of interests orchestrated by the political chief Jaime Gallardo, who sows the territory in which he operates with corruption. Carmina unmasks the satrap, supported by the ballot box, following the maxim of searching for the truth and telling it, even at the risk of her own life. Gallardo has managed to amass a huge fortune using politics. Amoral, reckless as a good gambler, gangster, ruthless with his adversaries, without limit in ambition. But also endowed with a gift of people out of the ordinary that makes him close among much of the citizenry. A sweeping populist leader who has managed to turn the province, in which he exercises absolute power, into a true fiefdom of which he is the owner and lord. Until Carmina returns to the city where she was born to run a new newspaper with the unwavering desire to exercise independent journalism. The garbage that he will find will place him in a dead end from which he will try to escape with the unconditional help of Santiago Sierra, former love and captain of the Civil Guard. A surprising story in which reality overcomes fiction
