Breaking Lorca

Blunt, Giles. (Author).

Summary: 1980s El Salvador, a young woman is detained in a government torture squad's headquarters, suspected of supporting guerilla forces. There, a bookish new recruit, Victor Peña, is assigned to assist in her interrogation. The terrifying journey into human cruelty and courage still haunts the tormentor as dramatically as it does his victim. A thoughtful and compulsively readable novel that speaks poignantly to the most troubling of contemporary issues.
