ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The new novel by one of the most prestigious Colombian writers: a thriller about corruption within the Christian churches in Latin America.

A boy is witness to a violent confrontation in an off-road part of town in the state of Cauca, Colombia. That same day someone clears all traces of the disagreement so that there is no trace left behind. No one in town claims to have heard or seen anything, and yet an anonymous accusation launches a dangerous investigation that leads to the dark world of the Christian churches present today throughout Latin America. It Will Be a Long Night is a thriller scattered with remarkable flashes of humor and pain; a story that reveals inequality and violence that continuously overwhelm an entire country.
