Even the Darkest Night

Melchor Marín is a young cop from the big city, Barcelona. But he is also an outsider. The son of a prostitute, Melchor went to prison as a teenager, convicted of working for a Colombian drug cartel. Behind bars, he read a book that changed his life: Les Misérables.

Then his mother was murdered. He decided to become a policeman. Now he has been sent to Terra Alta, a remote region of rural Catalonia, to investigate the horrific double murder of a wealthy local man and his wife. Before long, it becomes clear that nothing about the case is quite as it seems.
