The Witches’ Sun and the Pulse of Modern Detective Fiction

The body of a girl suspended from Santander’s Stone Crane frames a police investigation thick with new murders that further entangle the plot. The narrative follows dedicated agents who adhere to good nutrition or strict discipline, while exploring unconditional sex. The Cantabrian capital serves as a unique local backdrop for a universal phenomenon: minors’ use of social networks and how parents often overlook the double life their children lead in that parallel galaxy. This sets the stage for Félix G. Modroño’s latest novel The Witches’ Sun, a work of Zamoran descent. Modroño, whose father was mayor of Villapando, trained in Salamanca and makes his home in Santander where he is known for radiating the aura of false appearances amid rain clouds. Fresh from a Madrid Book Fair appearance, his publicity wave is in full swing.
