A snowstorm leaves four friends stranded in a country house. Blanca and Concha are a couple, Helena and Sofía… are not. Locked in without power or signal, they decide to tell stories to pass the time: Blondie is a very special cat to her owner; in a rural area, a mail carrier delivers more than just letters; Dorian meets Malak; Leonor flees from her past; Almu and Mari are just good friends… for now; a synchronicity happens in Granada; a mysterious crime shakes the forest and two investigators try to solve it; Grandma Juana has a secret; Cati writes about the loves she wishes for in her life… Hours pass and the four friends drink too much… Also, they each have their own story, so latent quarrels and hidden feelings soon surface. This forced coexistence will mark a turning point in their lives. B. S. Gairald’s first work is a collection of stories that touch on themes as diverse as the four protagonists who narrate them: secret or uninhibited loves, loneliness, hope, death, humor, fate… The author combines “serious” messages and humor, doses of harsh reality and moments of certain magic.
