Likeable characters. Storyline is intriguing with romance and mystery.

Well, this is one of the few cases in which my rating is better than the average!
If I'd have to be very frank, four stars are probably one too many, but I'd liked the style and, more than that, I'd have to respect the author and her expertise as a journalist.
Speaking about the book, you may be deceived by the first pages, as they are quite different from the rest. There will be no more sex, just a strange type of love, melted with memories and real facts and characters, most of them Argentinian.
The plot is not quite the best I've ever met, but the rhythm is alert, the characters have some deepness and the final, yet foreseeable, is an interesting one. So, you'll probably don't regret investing some hours in this one...
