De: Pablo Poveda

What if your biggest case meant working for the mob?
A single bullet. A loaded chamber. A game of Russian roulette.
Life can be a deadly gamble.

Former cop and seasoned detective Javier Maldonado has seen his share of crime and corruption on Madrid’s streets. But when the crime boss known as the “King of the Game” is murdered inside his own casino, Maldonado finds himself pulled into a dangerous conspiracy that threatens to upend the city’s fragile balance of power.

With the help of his quick-thinking secretary and a retired boxer with a nose for money, Maldonado must untangle the truth behind the King’s murder and deliver answers to a client who won’t accept failure.

But the deeper he dives into Madrid’s underworld—where every secret comes at a price—Maldonado learns that not everyone who calls themselves a friend can be trusted.

Not even the ones closest to him.

Can Maldonado unmask the killer and satisfy his client, or will he be trapped in a deadly web of power, corruption, betrayal, and deceit?
