Verónica García-Peña reinventa el género del thriller psicológico en esta novela en la que un peculiar personaje nos conducirá por los túneles de su memoria, nos envolverá en la bruma de un recóndito lugar y nos hará partícipes del puzle de su pasado para descubrir con él un gran secreto familiar.Un misterio que la memoria ha velado. Un recuerdo que desvelará la verdad. En 1936, Ricardo Pedreira Ulloa, un escritor atormentado por la pérdida de inspiración, decide volver al pazo familiar donde se crió, situado en una isla gallega. La aparición de una misteriosa mujer le devolverá su talento, pero también el recuerdo de una historia, enterrada por el olvido y los excesos, que se remonta diez años atrás. Un recuerdo a medias que lo persigue y le obliga a enfrentarse al enigma de su pasado. Una atmósfera asfixiante cuya neblina oculta una poderosa verdad. «Esa noche en la que todo cambió para siempre, el océano de mi isla rugía con furia, presa, como yo, del dolor de los pecados cometidos. Y esa noche descubrí, también, más oscuros secretos que helaron mi sangre y achicaron, casi del todo, las lagunas de mi desmemoria». «Frente a la puerta vieja y rancia del longevo faro, su forma se me antojó espectral, terrible y cargada de maldad. Sí, maldad que se respiraba y se sentía dentro y fuera, en la tierra y en el aire, e incluso en las primeras gotas de lluvia que comenzaban a caer, como lágrimas ardientes que auguraban que aquella noche de octubre de 1936, y las que la siguieron, lo cambiarían todo. ¿Puede un edificio ser malvado? Quizá la construcción como tal no, pero sí el corazón de los hombres que lo construyeron y utilizaron. El Faro del Amor. Sonaba tan romántico y evocador. En ese momento, frente a él, me preguntaba cuánto amor quedaba en el lugar. Nada. No quedaba nada. Se había esfumado como lo había hecho la bondad del alma de los que lo habían usado y habitado, dejando allí solo la huella de la consternación y la desesperanza, convirtiéndolo en un sitio sin corazón ni aliento. Un rincón relegado que subsistía a base de nostalgia e historias de otras épocas. Evocaciones de antaño que exigían vivir y ser libres de nuevo». ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "Verónica García-Peña reinvents the psychological thriller genre in this novel in which a strange character will lead us through the tunnels of his memory, envelop us in the mist of a remote place, and make us participate in the puzzle of his past to discover with him a great family secret. A mystery that memory has revealed. A memory that will reveal the truth. In 1936, Ricardo Pedreira Ulloa, a writer tormented by the loss of inspiration, decides to return to the family manor where he grew up, located on a Galician island. The appearance of a mysterious woman will give him back his talent, but also the memory of a story, buried by oblivion and excesses, that goes back ten years. A half memory that haunts him and forces him to face the enigma of his past. A suffocating atmosphere whose haze hides a powerful truth. 'That night when everything changed forever, the ocean of my island roared with fury, trapped, like me, in the pain of the sins committed. And that night I also discovered more dark secrets that made my blood freeze and narrowed, almost completely, the gaps in my forgetfulness.' 'In front of the old and stale door of the long-lived lighthouse, its form seemed spectral, terrible and charged with evil. Yes, evil that was breathed in and felt both inside and outside, on the ground and in the air, and even in the first drops of rain that began to fall, like burning tears that foretold that that night in October 1936, and those that followed, would change everything. Can a building be evil? Perhaps not the construction itself, but the hearts of the men who built and used it. The Lighthouse of Love. It sounded so romantic and evocative. At that moment, in front of it, I wondered how much love was left in the place. Nothing. There was nothing left. It had vanished as had the goodness of the soul of those who had used and inhabited it, leaving only the trace of dismay and hopelessness, making it a place without heart or breath. A relegated corner that subsisted on nostalgia and stories from other times. Evocations of yesteryear that demanded to live and to be free again.'"

Love these socks!
The wife struggles with socks. She only like the Nike ones, then they discontinued them, so had to start the search again! Found these, they are expensive just like the Nike, but the size is true, they look great, they are super soft and stretchy. They are light weight and breathable and seem to wick away moisture. She loves these!

I stay on your foot they don’t slip in your shoe
Number of Items: 3, Color: White/Neutral (3-pairs), Size: Medium
This is the only socks I wear Under Armour because they stay in place I wear a size 8, but they’re more comfortable with a large instead of a medium, but I wear both because I have them already and you can pull them to stretch them out a little bit

Great fit, truly doesn’t slide off heel
Number of Items: 3, Color: White/Neutral (3-pairs), Size: Medium, Number of Items: 3, Color: White/Neutral (3-pairs), Size: Medium
I’ve scoured all the lands looking for a no-show sock that was 1) thin, 2) quality, soft, breathable material, 3) didn’t dig into my feet/heels, 4) doesn’t shrink, and most importantly 5) stays on the back of my heel without a bulky non-slip rubber piece and these check all the boxes! Perfect for low profile women’s work shoes like Keds, etc. Not low enough for most flats though. I wear a women’s size 9.

So good - I’m buying MORE.
Number of Items: 3, Color: White (3-pairs), Size: Medium
I’m gonna give you more detail than you need about why I’m buying these socks again.
I’ve been the mom of girl athletes. I’ve been a model and a fashion director. I’ve worn every brand of shoe on the planet and never found a shoe that did NOT find a vulnerable spot on my foot to rub raw. Even my beloved white Jack Purcell sneakers.
With that said - I don’t like socks. I’ve bought a TON of them in 35+ years.....all major brands.
They shift. They lose their shape. They get holes in them and wear out too fast. Not these.
I retired this year, and knowing I’d be in sneakers a lot, traveling, sightseeing ......
I bought these 6 months ago and have worn them constantly. I’ve traveled with them. I’ve washed them in hot water and bleach.
The socks are like brand new. They are exactly the right cut so as not to be seen in a basic sneaker. The little silicone patch on the heel stays put. Not once have I had to dig down into my shoe and pull the sock back up. The socks have stayed soft and EXACTLY the same as the day they were new.
Like I said - I am back to buy them again. Great quality!
