Synopsis "Los que volvieron (in Spanish)"

Los que volvieron se inspira en un hecho real. En 2003 un grupo de alumnos de una escuela santafesina llevó a cabo una investigación sobre dos NN enterrados en el cementerio local. El informe llegó a organismos de derechos humanos y, gracias al trabajo del equipo de Antropología Forense, se estableció la identidad de la joven pareja de militantes. Él era francés y ella, mexicana, ambos desaparecidos y asesinados por las fuerzas de represión durante la última dictadura militar. En esta novela, la autora da voz a los distintos protagonistas para reconstruir este fragmento de la historia más oscura de nuestro país.
