Ambientada en el San Sebastián y el París de principios del siglo XX y basada, en gran parte, en la historia del maestro Cristóbal Balenciaga, este audiolibro es una conmovedora historia de amor, de secretos de amigos y de la divina y eterna ingenuidad de los veranos de la infancia. Desde sus inicios como aprendiz de costura con su madre, Balenciaga se rodeará de un exclusivo mundo, gracias a la amistad con su mentora la marquesa de Casa Torres y de las relaciones con la aristocracia europea y la casa real, a las que vistió de glamour en la época de la regente María Cristina.

Skurrile Fälle, ein charmanter TOD und ein Jenseits in dem jeder das Nachleben bekommt, an das er vor seinem Tod geglaubt hat! Privatdetektiv Jack Gold blickt mit Ironie und Humor auf das "Leben" nach dem Tod wie es sein könnte - und hätte da den einen oder anderen Verbesserungsvorschlag. Es gibt Auftraggeber, auf die ich gut verzichten könnte. Aber wenn der TOD persönlich an die Tür klopft, sagt man nicht nein. Auch wenn das in der Regel kein gutes Zeichen ist. Mein Auftrag: Herausfinden, warum in Boston neuerdings Menschen auf absurde Art und Weise sterben.

Meine Visitenkarte sagt: Detektiv des Todes. Nehmen Sie das ruhig wörtlich. Seit meinem letzten Fall ist mein bester Kumpel der Fährmann des Jenseits und mein Auftraggeber der TOD höchstpersönlich.

Ist das der Grund dafür, dass Seelen spurlos aus dem Totenreich verschwinden und Kharon in Schwierigkeiten steckt?
