Una novela de intriga política en la España y la Polonia de los setenta.
Paco Lucas, funcionario del consulado español en Varsovia, es acusado por un anónimo ante el Ministerio de Asuntos Exteriores de tener una relación pésima con su jefe, de relacionarse con los comunistas españoles exiliados en la ciudad y de llevar una vida moral disoluta. En plena década de los setenta, en Polonia estalla la lucha obrera en Gdansk contra el gobierno de Gomulka. Lucas transmite información detallada sobre el giro de los acontecimientos al palacio de Santa Cruz, al tiempo que viaja a Madrid para desmentir las acusaciones falsas contra su persona. De vuelta a Varsovia, Paco Lucas encuentra unos rollos fotográficos en los que aparecen dos mujeres haciendo streap tease, desprendiéndose del abrigo de visión de la mujer del cónsul...
Con gran destreza narrativa, Javier Rupérez borda una trama repleta de giros, que indaga en los entresijos de la política convulsa de entonces, con certeros retratos de personajes que vivieron las contradicciones de la historia, y una evocación bellísima de la ciudad de Varsovia. Una novela lúcida que atrapa al lector desde la primera página y que se alza como un testimonio histórico de primer orden.
