An accusation can destroy a life. But it can also reveal the strength of a family.
Nelson Campo Nuñez was a public figure in a Colombia marked by political violence. For many, his name became associated with a judicial case.
For me, above all, he was my father.
Accused in the case of the La Chinita massacre, he spent years in prison following a conviction that justice would later call into question. In time, the Supreme Court of Justice of Colombia annulled the proceedings that had led to his conviction. The Council of State later recognized the responsibility of the Colombian State for the unjust deprivation of his liberty.
But behind that accusation, there is another story.
The Son of the Enemy is the account of a son who grows up in the shadow of an unjust verdict. It is the story of a family confronted with prison, fear, distance, and uprooting.
With an intimate, sober, and deeply human voice, this book tells of the dignity of one man, the resilience of his family, and the unbreakable bond between a father and his son.
A true and moving story about injustice, memory, and love - a love that survives even when everything seems lost.
