Vidal es un apuesto joven colombiano que invita a su amiga Perla a irse de Colombia para reunirse con él en ParÃs y hacerla partÃcipe de su plan: lograr que ella, maleducada y rebelde, se case con el viejo conde Adolphe de Cressay. Asà el conde cumplirá lo que le prometió hacer de Vidal el legÃtimo heredero de ambos. Educada por Vidal, Perla logrará ocupar su sitio junto al conde y el plan parecerá tener éxito. Hasta un año después, cuando la muerte accidental del aristócrata es puesta en duda por su sobrino Clementi, decidido a no ceder la herencia a tan advenedizos herederos. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A novel by Jorge Franco, author of Rosario Tijeras and winner of the 2014 Alfaguara Novel Prize. Vidal is a handsome young Colombian who invites his friend Perla to leave Colombia and join him in Paris, where he lets her in on his plan: to have her -- unruly and rebellious as she is -- marry the elderly Count Adolphe de Cressay. In return, the count will make good on his promise to name Vidal the legitimate heir alongside her. Groomed by Vidal, Perla takes her place at the count's side, and the plan seems to be working -- until, a year later, the aristocrat's accidental death is thrown into doubt by his nephew Clementi, who is determined not to hand over the inheritance to such upstart heirs.
