520    $a En un momento en que la Iglesia católica está en la mira por escándalos de pederastia y por los debates sobre el aborto, Román Rodolfo Rovirosa, doctor en Religiones Comparadas, escribe una carta al papa Francisco para pedirle que interceda en otro asunto, no menos grave: la expropiación por parte de la Iglesia de las tierras de los cofrades mayas. Así empieza este thriller literario en el que una vez más Rey Rosa desvela los entresijos del poder en Guatemala y la verdad sobre conflictos y reivindicaciones que se remontan al pasado pero siguen hoy vigentes. Con su prosa quirúrgica en la que no faltan el humor y la sensualidad, crea una trama hipnótica de personajes memorables -como el comparador de religiones y su hijo, cuya relación encuentra eco en el cofrade don Melchor y sus dos hijos, o la profesora de yoga- que nos mantienen en vilo hasta la respuesta final.
520    $a At a time when the Catholic Church is being targeted by pedophilia scandals and debates on abortion, Rom̀n Rodolfo Rovirosa, doctor in Comparative Religions, writes a letter to Pope Francis asking him to intercede on another matter, no less serious. : the expropriation by the Church of the lands of the Mayan brothers. Thus begins this literary thriller in which Rey Rosa once again reveals the ins and outs of power in Guatemala and the truth about conflicts and demands that date back to the past but are still in force today. With his surgical prose in which humor and sensuality are not lacking, he creates a hypnotic plot of memorable characters - such as the comparator of religions and his son, whose relationship finds an echo in the brother Don Melchor and his two sons, or the teacher of yoga- that keep us in suspense until the final answer.
