Don’t Trust Them

Don’t Trust Them is a cultural thriller built on real events related to the disappearance and reappearance of major works of art throughout history.

The investigation carried out by a secret organization, The Corporation, leads readers into a mystery that spans centuries and revives the imaginary world created by Fernando Marías, who had already explored this universe in previous works.

A book for readers of multiple genres. It blends thriller, mystery novel, cultural nonfiction, historical fiction, and conspiracy.

A fascinating journey through some of the most universal names in culture. Leonardo da Vinci, Goya, Mozart, Kafka, Caravaggio, Raphael, and Jim Morrison appear connected by a single mystery, turning the novel into an especially engaging reading experience.
