Abstrakt
Set in Lima in the 1990s during the presidency of Alberto Fujimori, the editor of the notorious tabloid Exposed, Rolando Garro, is found beaten and stabbed to death and his body left outside a gambling parlor. Enrique C árdenas and Juan Peineta, both of whom had their reputations destroyed by Exposed, are suspected of killing Garro.
Cárdenas was blackmailed by Garro to invest in his tabloid otherwise he would publish nude photos of Cárdenas. Cárdenas refused to meet the demands of Garro and had his reputation damaged when the photos were published.
Peineta is a disgraced former television star and, before Garro's death, would send embittered letters to Exposed.
