El clan / The Clan (Inspector Elena Blanco 5)

Magnificent, brutal and hugely addictive, Carmen Mola outdoes herself in the long-awaited denouement of the Inspector Elena Blanco series.

When dying doesn’t matter, everything is permitted. Elena Blanco, inspector of the Case Analysis Brigade (BAC) faces her worst enemy, a powerful organisation made up of personalities from the world of business, politics, the judiciary and the police. The Clan. To confront it is to end up dead. Even so, the BAC rises to the challenge. But when Elena receives images of Zarate lying in a pool of blood, she makes an unforgivable mistake.

With the inspector wanted by the police, accused of the murder of a policeman, and Zárate missing, Mariajo, Reyes, Orduño and Buendía wage war on their own. The arrival of a new inspector to replace Elena worsens the situation: she seems to have been sent by the Clan with the mission of bringing down the BAC and putting Blanco in jail.

However, the discovery of some corpses that have been disembowelled leads Elena’s investigation to cross all limits to save her Brigade and find Zárate, without knowing if he is dead or alive.

It is the beginning of the end for the BAC.

None of its members had ever faced a killer as ruthless as the Clan.
