Red April by Santiago Roncagliolo

The war against the Shining Path is over. Yet when a charred and mutilated body is discovered during Carnival, the people of the small town of Ayacucho understand that death has once more returned to their land. Only now the terror emanates not from the government death squads, nor from the guerrillas in the mountains, but from a single source. A serial murderer. And now everyone is afraid. Everyone is a suspect.

Santiago Roncagliolo is the youngest winner of the Alfaguara Prize, awarded to him in 2006 for Red April. He was born in Lima, Peru, and currently lives in Barcelona.

Edith Grossman is the award-winning translator of such masterworks as Cervantes's Don Quixote and Garcia Marquez's Love in the Time of Cholera.
