Enrique and Lili, the latter a Canadian ex-banker, produce premium Extra Virgin Olive Oil in southern Spain´s resplendent olive region of Úbeda. They barely survive in a ferocious, competitive and corrupt market. Oleg and Andrei muddle through on illegally earned funds in Estonia. They hatch an extraordinary plot to become rich. Their aim is to ruin one-third of the global olive harvest, that grown in southern Spain. Their ally: the olive fruit fly. Ana and Inma are cousins and business partners in Madrid. They find themselves embroiled in Enrique and Lili´s struggles to continue while wrestling with their own dilemmas. Should Ana accept an inheritance tainted by the Spanish Civil War? Will Lili resolve an uncertain sexuality? Once the flies strike, the question becomes: who will emerge with a future? [This is the third Davide Shape/Inma Ávila novel.]
