Fascinado por la posibilidad de suplantar a la persona con la que lo confunden, Samuel se inventa una relacion con Clara para Carina, la hermana de esta, y entra en un juego del que va perdiendo el control; al poco tiempo no tiene nada claro si el amor que esta inventando lo va a salvar o a acabar de hundirlo. Una novela que combina la intriga del thriller con la inmediatez del reportaje. Narrada en primera persona, a traves de una voz cercana, inquisitiva e ironica, el protagonista va desvelando las imposturas del amor y al mismo tiempo su absoluta necesidad. Siempre he evitado la palabra amor. Un sustantivo devaluado, una moneda tan usada que ha perdido el relieve, de manera que se puede acariciar entre los dedos sin percibir imagen alguna; una moneda que no me atreveria a dar en pago por miedo a ser mirado como un estafador. \u003cb\u003eENGLISH DESCRIPTION\u003c\/b\u003e From his terrace, Samuel looks over Madrid's daily bustle.

When he discovers he's been mistaken for the dead woman's secret lover, Samuel becomes fascinated with the idea of impersonating this man and invents an elaborate life story, which he shares with Carina, Clara's sister.
