La noche era terciopelo / by Moreno-Garcia, Silvia,author.; Alduenda, Ana Cecilia,translator.;
"From the New York Times bestselling author of Mexican Gothic comes a riveting noir about a daydreaming secretary, a lonesome thug, and the mystery of the missing woman that brings them together. 1970s Mexico City. Maite is a secretary who lives for one thing: the latest issue of Secret Romance. While student protests and political unrest consume the city, Maite escapes into stories of passion and danger. Her next-door neighbor, Leonora, a beautiful art student, seems to live a life of intrigue and romance that Maite envies. When Leonora disappears under suspicious circumstances, Maite finds herself searching for the missing woman--and journeying deeper into Leonora's secret life of student radicals and dissidents. Meanwhile, someone else is also looking for Leonora at the behest of his boss, a shadowy figure who commands goon squads dedicated to squashing political activists. Elvis is an eccentric thug who longs to escape his own life: He loathes violence and loves old movies and rock 'n' roll. But as Elvis searches for the missing woman, he comes to observe Maite from a distance--and grows more and more obsessed with this woman who shares his love of music, and the unspoken loneliness of his heart. Now as Maite and Elvis come closer to discovering the secrets behind Leonora's disappearance, they can no longer escape the danger that threatens to consume their lives, with hitmen, government agents, and Russian spies aiming to protect Leonora's secrets--at gunpoint."--1970, Ciudad de México. Maite trabaja como secretaria, pero solo vive para una cosa: la siguiente entrega de «Romance secreto». Las protestas estudiantiles y la inestabilidad política asedian la ciudad, pero ella se evade de todo gracias a esas maravillosas historias de pasión y riesgo. La vecina de la puerta de al lado, una atractiva estudiante de arte llamada Leonora, parece llevar una vida repleta de intriga y romance, algo que Maite envidia. Y cuando esta desaparece en extrañas circunstancias, Maite no puede evitar empezar a buscarla, sumergiéndose en la vida secreta de su vecina; una vida de estudiantes radicales y disidentes. Pero hay alguien más que está buscando a Leonora. Lo hace por encargo de su jefe, una persona sombría que envía a grupos de matones a aplastar a los activistas políticos. Elvis es un delincuente excéntrico que sueña con escapar de su propia vida: es reacio a la violencia y le encantan las películas antiguas y el rock and roll. Mientras Elvis busca el paradero de la mujer desaparecida, empieza a observar a Maite; y cada vez se obsesiona más con esa mujer que comparte su amor por la música y la soledad de su corazón.Cuando Maite y Elvis se acerquen a la verdad tras la desaparición de Leonora, tendrán que hacer frente a los peligros que amenazan con destruir sus vidas, con matones, agentes del Gobierno y espías rusos intentando proteger ciertos secretos a punta de pistola.
