The journals were never meant to be published.
Valeria Castillo is thirty-two years old, fluent in four languages, and one of the most respected logistics executives working across Latin America today. She moves through boardrooms and business dinners with the polished authority of a woman who has never once let them see her coming.
She has also been keeping journals since she was twenty-three.
Panamá Nights, the first volume of The Valeria Papers, is drawn from those journals. It begins on a flight to Bogotá, where a stranger in seat 4C notices that she writes everything down. It moves through Panama City's elite social circles, a rain-soaked evening in Bogotá, the gilded danger of a Canal Club dinner, and an unexpected extension in Madrid that changes everything.
Along the way, Valeria navigates desire on her own terms, a threat to her carefully guarded privacy, the complicated weight of her past, and the question she has been circling for nine years: what does it mean to build a life around the truth of what you actually are rather than what the world expected you to become?
Sharp, sensual, emotionally devastating, and utterly impossible to put down, Panamá Nights introduces one of contemporary fiction's most unforgettable voices.
