Synopsis "El dilema de los próceres (in Spanish)"

Aventuras, suspenso y humor que conmueven por la simplicidad y, a la vez, la profundidad de sus personajes, y las situaciones a las que se enfrentan: Borges toma el lugar de Watson en esta novela en la que Sherlock Holmes intenta desbaratar una extraña conspiración vinculada con José de San Martín y Juan Manuel de Rosas. El dilema de los próceres es un thriller sorprendente, plagado de vueltas de tuerca, claves históricas y culturales. De las pistas en Londres y Boulogne-sur-Mer a los peligros de la Buenos Aires de principios del siglo pasado: una ciudad acechada por cuchilleros, espadachines y militares capaces de todo, donde juegan roles inquietantes Victoria Ocampo, Evaristo Carriego y hasta Horacio Quiroga.

Jorge Fernández Díaz is a writer and journalist. For thirty-five years, he alternated roles as a police reporter, investigative journalist, political analyst, editor-in-chief of newspapers, and director of magazines. He is currently one of the main political columnists for the newspaper La Nación. He published, among other books, El dilema de los próceres, Mamá, Fernández, Corazones desatados, La segunda vida de las flores, La logia de Cádiz (Planeta, 2008), La hermandad del honor (Planeta, 2010), Alguien quiere ver muerto a Emilio Malbrán, and Las mujeres más solas del mundo. His latest novel El puñal (Planeta, 2014) has been on the bestseller list for over a year, was published in Spain and Latin America, and will soon be filmed by director Marcelo Piñeyro. Arturo Pérez-Reverte said of this work: “Hard, black, violent, disenchanted, and exciting novel. So Argentine that it shakes.” Fernández Díaz received the Medalla de la Hispanidad, awarded by the Spanish government and the Spanish community in Argentina; the Konex de Platino as the best editor of the decade; the Atlántida award with which the publishers of Catalonia celebrated his work in favor of books, and the Bicentennial Medal for his journalistic and literary work. In 2012, he was decorated by the king of Spain with the Cross of the Order of Isabel la Católica, and in 2017 he entered the Argentine Academy of Letters, where he occupies the Juan Bautista Alberdi chair.
