The rating of the different categories comes from the opinion of Delibris' collaborators
Insincerity and falsehood as a metaphor for human relationships identify this thriller that has been described as intelligent and full of tension. Nothing is what it seems, until the end. Everything is instrumentalized, including sex. It is recounted with elegance, and with an almost filmic rhythm, as is characteristic of the author.
