The smell of fear
by Manuel Ríos San Martín

August 30, 2023
There is no animal more dangerous than humans.

Elena is an animal of the human species, a passionate veterinarian who leaves her life at the Valencia Zoo to protect the beings she loves: elephants, chimpanzees, lions… She takes care of them with care and saves them from danger until a shooter begins to spread panic.
Who is this hidden criminal who intends to annihilate the most beautiful specimens of other species? The peculiar investigation, carried out by a UDEV veteran and a young inspector, seems like a labyrinth with no exit. According to the penal code, killing an animal is not considered “murder.” So? Is the life of a human being worth more?
Elena will rely on Cristina, her partner, and Sidy, her lover and companion in the park, to unmask the culprit regardless of whether she has to break the law. Between love triangles and unusual suspicions, everything is set to make blood flow. Could she be the next victim?
