The Night Will Be Long

by Santiago Gamboa
ebook
Read a sample Read a sample
Investigating a mysterious firefight in Colombia leads a journalist into a world of corrupt churches in this gripping thriller by the author of Necropolis.
When a horribly violent confrontation occurs outside of Cauca, Colombia, only a young boy is around to witness it. But no sooner does the violence happen than it disappears, vanished without a trace. Nobody claims to have seen anything. Nobody claims to have heard anything. That is, until an anonymous accusation catalyzes a dangerous investigation into the deep underbelly of the Christian churches present today in Latin America. The Night Will Be Long is a dark, twisting thriller filled with moments of humor and pain—a story that will stick with readers long after they turn the last page.
Praise for The Night Will Be Long
"This intelligent police procedural from Gamboa . . . refracts decades of turbulent Colombian history through the experiences of dramatically drawn characters. . . . a colorful story with solid grounding in historical detail." —Publishers Weekly
"For my money, there may be no more ambitious, accomplished writer than Gamboa at work in international noir today. Gamboa brings a searching, penetrating style to the prose and unwinds a genuinely compelling and provocative story that interrogates the very nature of violence and truth." —Crime Reads
"An engrossing thriller set in a modern-day Colombia haunted by the legacy of decades of armed conflict. . . . Gamboa has crafted an effective thriller that thrives on his empathetic imagination." —Shelf Awareness
