Description

Amb un punt de partida apassionant, girs argumentals imprevisibles i una imaginació pròpia dels mestres del thriller fantàstic, la nova novel·la de Marc Pastor conjuga intriga i aventura per atrapar el lector i mantenir-lo aferrat sense treva a les seves pàgines. Acaba d’acomplir els divuit anys i la Farishta, desinhibida i valenta, ja ha trobat la feina de la seva vida. Som al 1993, i la companyia russa Iefremov-Strugatski l’ha contractada per atendre les famílies riques que viuen en un complex d’illes privat a la Polinèsia francesa, on se’ls ha garantit que podran educar els fills sense cap risc. En aquell aparent paradís coneixerà ben aviat l’amor. Però també, a poc a poc, es veurà atrapada en un seguit d’esdeveniments inquietants que posaran en dubte la veritable naturalesa de la seva feina i el fosc negoci dels poderosos que l’han contractada. Quina és la missió inconfessable d’aquelles famílies? Per què estan aïllades del món? De debò ho han sacrificat tot pels seus fills? En un clima de tensió creixent, amb la certesa de no poder confiar en ningú i amb el temor de tenir la vida en joc, a la Farishta només li queda una pregunta per respondre: és massa tard per escapar? «El preu del paradís és el silenci. Si la companyia manté un secretisme blindat pel que fa a les seves accions, no pot ser tan fàcil renunciar-hi i tornar al món real. Deuen assegurar-se d’alguna manera que no revelaràs res. Que no tornaràs a parlar.»
