Junior, the poly-addicted son of the former mayor Roger Lobus, decides to return to the city of Sierpe where, after suffering an overdose that is on the point of killing him, he finds out that his father has been diagnosed with terminal cancer. This coincidence, along with Junior’s old obsession with death, will drive to him to rebuild his damaged relationship. The novel describes the final days that the two men will spend together in the hospital room, where they come across a parade of characters including a psychopath with a fondness for martial arts who blames all his problems on Kurt Cobain and the deformed gangster owner of a brand of perfumes. This third novel expands the boundaries of the universe of Sierpe, the imaginary city where the author recreates his previous works, and approaches the subject of the death of the father from a sharp and uncomfortably funny perspective.
