- Synopsis
- In a provincial town, Tony is the big boss. Owner of the local media, he lives with his beautiful second wife, Isabel, in a lavish mansion surrounded by parks, a lake, and his very own private zoo.
  This show of luxury is bound to be noticed, as the French and Tooth Fairy two low-life newcomers quickly do. With the help of a man on the inside, a cealous employee they call the Fat Man, they plan to kidnapp Isabel for a juicy ransom.
  Only Tony was not as big nor as rich as he seemed. And his real bosses are about to get really mad.
  Inspired in a noir novel by Raúl Argemí, notable writer winner of the Dashiell Hammett Award in 2005, the Novelpol Award, the Trigre Juan and the L'H Confidencial Awards in 2008, among others.
