The beginning already promises: «I was born a mestizo, a cross between a Spanish Mastiff and a Brazilian row. When I was a puppy I had one of those cute and ridiculous names that newborn dogs are given, but too much time passed from that. I've forgotten. Everyone has called me Negro for a long time. I have already read the first chapter and without having communed much with Falcó's series, this story does has managed to get my attention, perhaps also because I am a dog lover and I like tough stories and male first person storytellers. I hope I am not wrong with my forecasts.
