La suerte de los Silva Romero es el logro de un padre físico que lee el futuro y una madre abogada que libra a los suyos de las bajezas de la política. Pero su pasado está lleno de fantasmas: Romero Buj, el tío, asesinado por fanáticos de la lucha comunista, y Romero Aguirre, el abuelo, un destacado líder liberal que va de la gloria a la decadencia, son dos sombras que los siguen.

Vive apenas obsesionado con su profesión, hasta que una mañana recibe una extraña carta en su consultorio.

Publisher's summary
"Se cuenta y se vuelve a contar, con estas mismas palabras que he estado usando,la fábula real de la madre que un día bisiesto fue de verdugo en verdugo pidiendo a los gritos que los mataran a ella y a sus dos hijos porque les habían dejado la familia sin padre."
A las afueras de Belén del Chamí, un pueblo que aún no consigue aparecer en el mapa de Colombia, el mudo Salomón Palacios es asesinado a unos pasos de su casa. Después de los primeros días de duelo, su viuda, la corajuda y deslenguada Hipólita, vuelve de la oscuridad del tormento para perder de una vez por todas la cordura y salir a buscar su propio fin. Pero en medio de aquel viaje desesperado y en el enfrentamiento con un bestiario de personajes llenos de humor y de vida en el contexto de la muerte se topará con una tardía e inesperada vocación por seguir viva.
Río Muerto es una de las novelas más personales de su autor, pues en ella retrata de manera vertiginosa, conmovedora y descarnada - y además de primera mano la pérdida del padre, el duelo y la desintegración de los lazos familiares a causa de la violencia. Y confirma una intuición que ha rondado toda su obra: la de cómo lo invisible - la imaginación, la memoria, la esperanza, la ficción, la conexión con el más allá, el destino - puede resolvernos los peores dramas.

This newer edition of the King James Bible published in 1769 is usually preferred by most that read it over the older 1611 version. This 1769 edition is highly sought after due to being more reader/listener friendly than the 1611 since many typos were fixed.... We hope your new audio bible will go everywhere with you and be a blessing for years to come.

Story
It’s the summer of ’77 in New York City, and the only thing more unnerving than the scorching heatwave is the rampant murder, leaving washed-up homicide detective Richard Dietrich on edge. When Dietrich investigates a brutal mob hit the brass doesn’t want him to solve, he goes from phoning it in to getting in over his head. Caught up in a mysterious second homicide with an even more perplexing perpetrator, Dietrich starts to second guess his instincts—and his memory—as he searches for answers at the bottom of a bottle.

Llevo 40 años leyendo...
... y sin la menor duda, este es el libro más extraordinario que leído. Realismo pero no realismo mágico. Realismo doloroso. Realismo lleno de lágrimas. Pero al mismo tiempo, es un libro que te levanta el ánimo, que te da fuerzas para seguir adelante, que te obliga a tomar acción para que esas maldades no sigan pasando. Colombia necesita un cambio. Mi patria necesita la paz. Gracias, Ricardo por contarnos esta historia. Y gracias Carlos Manuel por una lectura magnífica.
