Descripción
A good stew is always delicious when prepared with patience and quality ingredients. Much the same applies to this novel, where intrigue, mythology, a dreamlike setting, and a touch of science blend to perfection. My scientific background has taught me to be meticulous about the accuracy and precision of words. Consequently, I pay close attention to anything related to my field of study over the past two decades—work that has led my students to dub me «the cow-fart professor.» In this instance, I must yield to the evidence: I have never found a better way to explain such a complex issue with greater accuracy and, above all, such affection. Moreover, the story is intriguing, entertaining, and immersive, set against a captivating backdrop. It is a book that is devoured quickly and leaves you wanting more. And yes, in case anyone is wondering, there are many ways to save the world besides giving up cows and eating tofu.”

When Amadeo sets out to end his life, the universe tempts him with an offer he can’t refuse—a chance to postpone his plans and take down the person he holds responsible for his misery: an influential vegan guru. This sudden change of heart will throw a wrench into a twisted conspiracy designed to forever silence Deva—a marketing expert who has abruptly abandoned her high-powered executive life in Madrid to seek refuge at La Chalga, the mountain inn run by Adelina, her sharp-witted mother and celebrated master of traditional Asturian cuisine. Not even Adelina can imagine the shocking turn of events that awaits them all that weekend. In this idyllic hamlet surrounded by cows grazing peacefully in lush green meadows, the destinies of a dozen souls will become hopelessly tangled. And their lives will be completely upended… or perhaps finally set right.
