Y líbranos del mal

Roncagliolo, Santiago

All families keep their secrets, but some hide truths capable of destroying everything in their path. Jimmy thinks his life in New York is perfect: he is about to enter college, his father is the administrator of Brooklyn Cathedral, and his mother is a happy homemaker. However, when the grandmother falls ill and decides to travel to Peru to take care of her, the contact with the old friends of her father will open a window to a past that he did not know and it would be better for him never to have known. And Deliver Us From Evil is a training novel that doubles as an absorbing literary thriller; a heartbreaking journey to the origins that is, at the same time, a descent into hell for its protagonist who puts on the table the harsh reality about religious fanaticism, abuse of power, pedophilia and a conservative Latin American society that is capable of overlap any crime in order to maintain the status quo.
