Orballo

Carlos Perez Garcia

Traducteur Lia Garcia

Synopsis

In a small northern village, where the drizzle never stops and secrets ferment beneath the moss, two teenagers vanish. No one saw anything. No one heard anything. 
Helena Barreiro and Sara Aguilar face a case that soon awakens echoes of the past: twenty years ago, another girl disappeared in the same area without leaving a trace. Among isolated hamlets, mist‑shrouded hills, and neighbors who stay far too quiet, the Civil Guard plunges into a race against time where every clue feels like a maze. 
As the investigation moves forward, the fine rain —the orballo— slowly seeps into all of them, revealing old guilt, broken loves, and truths someone would do anything to keep buried. 
Because sometimes the rain doesn’t wash things away. It reveals everything.
