"La llamada la desper̤t a medianoche. Elba Esther contes̤t inquieta, del otro lado de la ̕lnea los secretarios de Hacienda y Gobernac̤in insis̕tan en verla: las negociaciones con el sindicato ha̕ban llegado a un punto muerto y el presidente deseaba que se reunieran. La recorr̤i un mal presentimiento, sa̕ba que pod̕ra ser una trampa, pero no le quedaba otra opc̤in. Al ̕da siguiente, abor̤d el av̤in privado que la esperaba para llevarla hasta Toluca, de a̕h viaja̕ra hacia la capital para desayunar en Los Pinos. Tan pronto to̤c tierra, dos oficiales la arrestaron por corrupc̤in. Esta es una obra de ficc̤in, no obstante, las muertes de periodistas y po̕lticos, la desigualdad social, las mafias, el narcot̀rfico, la impunidad y la corrupc̤in son tristemente reales." --, back cover"The call woke her up at midnight. Elba Esther answered uneasily, on the other side of the line the secretaries of the Treasury and the Interior insisted on seeing her: the negotiations with the union had reached a dead end and the president wanted them to meet. A bad feeling ran through her, she knew it could be a trap, but she had no choice. The next day, she boarded the private plane that was waiting for her to take her to Toluca, from there she would travel to the capital to have breakfast in Los Pinos. As soon as she made landfall, two officers arrested her for corruption. This is a work of fiction, however, the deaths of journalists and politicians, social inequality, mafias, drug trafficking, impunity and corruption are sadly real." --, cataloger's translation of the synopsis on the cover
