Una mañana cualquiera en una ciudad indeterminada del norte del país, la Finis de casi todas las novelas de Juana Salabert. Hay turistas, viajeros, abuelos paseando a sus nietos, desempleados "al sol", trabajadores, ciudadanos de toda clase y edad. Y de pronto irrumpe lo innombrable, el terror que no se identifica de inmediato, pero del que ya hemos acumulado demasiadas experiencias directas e indirectas. Un grupo de islamistas radicales toma rehenes en el teatro de Finis. El teatro es una obra arquitectónica singular coronada por un fresco en el que predominan una gran sirena y un hipocampo.

Both times the Black Berets were there to keep the worst from happening. But how long could five men and one boy hold out against an army of the world’s most skilled assassins? An army with limitless resources—and the patience to keep on killing?
