About “Southern Seas”
Barcelona detective Pepe Carvalho's radical past resurfaces when businessman Stuart Pedrell, a patron of artists and activists who disappeared while seeking the spirit of Paul Gauguin, is found stabbed to death a year later at a construction site. Hired by Pedrell's wife, jaded former communist Carvalho traces the killer through the old anti-Franco left and Barcelona's literature, cuisine, and criminal underbelly.
