La estrategia del impostor: Premio Jaén de Novela 2025

Mario Mesa was a promising young politician whose meteoric career was cut short by a disagreement with his party leader. Since then, he has been managing a foundation, which pays him a good salary but at the same time condemns him to public insignificance. Despite this, Mario is fully convinced that his best moment is yet to come. But what is to come is impossible to predict. One morning, he receives a photograph and a brief message on his cell phone that take him back to an event he thought was buried and that could have terrible consequences if it comes to light. In just three days, Mario, together with his friends, will have to do everything possible to keep this secret hidden, if he does not want everything that makes up his life to crumble before his eyes. La estrategia del impostor (The Impostor's Strategy) is a thrilling mystery in which Salvador Gutiérrez Solís, creator of the trilogy starring Inspector Carmen Puerto and known for his suspenseful threads on X (@gutisolis), leads the reader through a maze of mirrors. The sewers of politics, the role of the media, excessive ambition, and the eroticism of power come together in this work with the form and pace of a high-voltage thriller and the depth of the great novels. Gutiérrez Solís establishes himself as one of the most solid storytellers on the Spanish scene, capable of combining entertainment, suspense, reflection, and the best literature in a single story.
