'The myth of the monkey’s paw is something that has remained in our unconscious in some way: the story of a magic paw that will grant us wishes in exchange for a high price for each one of them.In this new story by Francisco Sáenz Ráez, based on this myth, we witness a murder as mysterious as it is impossible. After Herbert White laid his hands on a talisman of dubious provenance and terrible powers, his life came to an irrevocable end. Who killed him? Why? What really happened?As readers and in the best style of suspense novels, we become a detective who tries to discover the murderer based on the few clues that the author leaves us. We follow the thread that that monkey’s paw has carefully woven around the neck of our protagonist.' 10
