UNA HISTORIA ESTREMECEDORA
La Rosa de Nieve es la primera novela que he leído del autor Manuel Sánchez, una historia llena de sorpresas entorno al misterio de una mujer apasionada.
Conoceremos la vida de Javier, adoptado desde muy pequeño por un amigo de su padre. Sentiremos la pena por su fracaso como escritor, al borde de una depresión tras la muerte de su padre adoptivo.
Durante el funeral conocerá a Isabella, una joven que fue amante de su padre. Este descubrimiento será trascendental para su vida.
Se verá inmerso en una vorágine de peligros en Buenos Aires. El mundo del crimen organizado y la prostitución lo enfrentarán a algo que no esperaba en la búsqueda de La Rosa de Nieve.
Una novela dura y estremecedora, con momentos claves llenos de dolor y de angustia. El autor ha sabido llevarnos a ese mundo lleno de sombras, donde la vida se valora por el poder o el dinero que tienes.
Recomiendo esta novela a todos los lectores que gustan
del suspense y el drama.
