What is Neviditelný strážce about?
A young woman's body is found beside the river in Navarre's Baztán Valley. Investigators soon uncover a connection to another murder committed about a month earlier. Homicide Inspector Amaia Salazarová takes the case, returning to Elizondo, where she was born and from which she once tried to escape. The professional investigation becomes intertwined with her personal and family conflicts. Clues also evoke traditional Basque mythology and the figure of the basajaun, adding a layer of legend and uncertainty to the realistic police investigation. Dolores Redondo's official website and publisher Planeta confirm the original title, El guardián invisible, and its place as the opening volume of Trilogía del Baztán.
