Sneak Preview: The Pain of Others

Here's an excerpt from a new Pushkin audiobook I think you'll enjoy, The Pain of

Others by Miguel Ángel Hernández. In a quiet town in the Spanish countryside, Miguel Ángel

Hernández's best friend murdered his sister and took his own life by jumping off a cliff. No one

ever knew why. The investigation was closed, and the crime forgotten. Twenty years later, when

time has dulled the shock but not the questions, Miguel returns home, putting himself in the

shoes of a detective, in an attempt to reconstruct the tragic night that marked the end of his

adolescence. But the investigation will awaken ghosts that he thought he had left behind: a

childhood marked by the Church, by sin and guilt; the constant presence of illness and death;

the oppressive, closed world from which he managed to escape. Based on true events, The

Pain of Others is a chilling audiobook that blends police thriller, investigative reporting, and

literary suspense—an unflinching reckoning with violence, memory, and the question that still

haunts the author: Did he fail to see the warning signs that his best friend was capable of this

horrific crime? Find The Pain of Others at Pushkin.fm or wherever you get audiobooks.
