Manuel Roseo, one of Argentina's biggest landowners was tortured to death along with his sister in law. It's believed his killer was sick of trying to swindle Roseo out of his vast tract of land and so decided to take more drastic measures. The prime suspect? A psychopath known to police as The Man With a Thousand Faces.

Fascinating insight into a tragic event

Told with a good understanding of the language and culture of Argentina, this tale held my interest from beginning to end. The narrator was excellent, not a hint of melodrama, just the facts put together in a way that created a satisfying listening experience.

Perfect.

It is a great report on a real case, that kept me hooked throughout every minute. I am Argentinian, and I had only overheard about it, ot was too complex to get it easily, but here it is perfectly developed.
Descriptions, voice recordings, the sounds of the forest... Translations were not perfect, they should get a professional interpreter to do them next time, but it didn't interrupt my enjoymtent

Thoroughly engrossing murder mystery

A tragic story about a man who tried to protect what he loved and those he loved from the horrible corrupt sadists we have in this world.
Delivered in an engaging way
