At Close Quarters: A Case for Private Investigator Ricardo Cupido
All is not what it seems as every character becomes a suspect in this gripping, politically-charged thriller. Every day Samuel watches as a woman drops off her two children at the bus stop. He is so fascinated by her that, one afternoon when he cannot be at his window to observe her, he leaves his camera programmed to photograph her. Later, when he looks through the pictures, he discovers that he has captured the murder of a local teenage boy. Samuel decides to approach the woman, Marina, who is the recently separated daughter of a high-ranking officer, Captain Olmedo. When Olmedo is found dead in his house with a bullet through his chest, Marina rejects the official version of death by suicide and hires a detective who will discover secrets as well as the relationships of those that surround them.
