About this audiobook
What if you could live someone else's life better than they ever did?
Madrid, 1951. Santiago Vallejo is a young man without roots — a forger, a watcher, a ghost. In Francoist Spain, where silence is safer than truth, Santiago survives by slipping into roles, voices, and shadows. Until one day, a wealthy industrialist, Don Gregorio Beltri, offers him a strange opportunity: travel to southern France and convince his exiled son, Julián, to come home and take over the family empire.
But Julián has no intention of returning. Not to Spain. Not to the past.
And certainly not to the name he abandoned.
As Santiago observes him — studying his gestures, his manner of speech, his past, his secrets — a dangerous fascination grows. What begins as an assignment turns into obsession. Then imitation. And finally… replacement.
When Julián vanishes one stormy afternoon, Santiago steps into his life.
