¿Qué sucede cuando pierdes la memoria? Te asustarías, ¿Cierto? Ahora, agreguemos que durante ese tiempo hiciste cosas completamente perturbadoras, horridas y que superan tu capacidad de asociación, partiendo que todo luce irreal e inhumano. Esa sensación de vacío por una laguna mental que dictará tu nuevo destino.
Esto es Caníbal, el juego donde la memoria juega un papel importante para la realización del ser, casi sublime o divino que condena automáticamente a los jugadores, y donde John A. Triviño, un forense del hospital Cruz Roja, con muchos fantasmas del pasado, se adentra en esta trampa mortal sin siquiera darse cuenta transformándose en el jugador estrella de un juego que él nunca quiso estar.
A criminal mastermind makes a bold move against a wealthy client to put himself in a position to retire in comfort. He has no idea what he's up against when a young widow, desperate to make ends meet, sets her eyes on earning the bounty set on his head.
***
Newly widowed housewife Melody Scott needs to earn some major cash, fast. When her bright and busy children learn that a priceless ruby bracelet has been stolen and a six-figure reward is being offered, they convince her to try to do what the police, museum security, and the best private investigators have failed to do. Working against them is a notorious thief who has met people from around the world, but who has never once encountered a woman like Melody Scott. When the sweet innocence of the Scott family clashes against criminal forces more dangerous than they ever imagined, Melody is all too aware that a mom's got to do what a mom's got to do to protect her family.
The Widow, Melody Scott is a 2021 Watty Award Winner!
