He has the dangerous habit of sticking out his hand and grabbing whatever he can get. He doesn't think much about the consequences because he is never afraid. Owain is a British student who is very insistent on speaking correct Spanish and making the most of his study grant in Madrid. But Owain is not like Cipriano - he would rather not face assassins. Fortunately, they have the courage and hacking skills of their friend Guillermina to help them out. When Cipri discovers a valuable 14th century Arab manuscript, he cannot help but take it. Unknowingly, a piece of the controversial Eleonora-Pinto collection has fallen into their hands. Owain, Guille and Cipri's discoveries lead them into unknown territory in Madrid where certain organizations try to thrive at the expense of the citizens; where the reigning law is the survival of the fittest, even if this means a total lack of scruples. Spain's museum and library heritage is in danger. Antonio Puertas Casta os builds this adventure with a fine balance between reality, caricature and fiction. A social criticism full of humor and suspense that dissects the different networks of a very recognizable Madrid.
