El caso neruda
(Book)

"Un Pablo Neruda anciano y enfermo acaba de regresar a Chile después de dejar su cargo como embajador del gobierno de Salvador Allende en París. De su vida -- llena de éxitos -- le queda solo un misterio por desvelar. Una duda profunda que lo atormenta cuando percibe el final de su existencia. En el invierno de 1973 conoce al cubano Cayetano Brulé, a quien involucra en una investigación que cambiará la vida de este para siempre." --From publisher's description.

"Best-selling Chilean Ampuero, a creative writing professor at the University of Iowa, is author of several novels, including a series featuring Cayetano Brulé, a Cuban detective living in Chile. In this fifth installment, Brulé receives a call from terminally ill poet Pablo Neruda. Brulé is asked to locate in Mexico a Dr. Bracamonte, who, according to Neruda, could save his life from a devastating cancer. But Brulé discovers that the real motive is Bracamonte's beautiful wife, Neruda's former lover, and her daughter, whom Neruda suspects is his. Brulé's investigation takes him to Mexico, Cuba, Germany, Bolivia, and, in a surprising conclusion, Chile." --Críticas magazine.
