A l’Andreu Boix, oficial de la policia andorrana, li han matat un banquer. Hi ha molts nervis. Hi ha un mar de rumors, i no n’hi ha cap que sigui bo.

La supervivència del petit país pirinenc, que sense buscar-ho s’ha trobat amb una difícil relació amb els estats veïns, penja d’un fil. Ningú no és qui diu que és. El Boix haurà de viatjar a Madrid, remenarà alguns papers vells i, sobretot, per prime... continue
