Description

El amor, la traición y la muerte en la Guerra Fría

Es el año 1947, y Rafael Mallo, escritor trotskista formado en Moscú, está preso en una cárcel franquista, en la agónica espera de que lo fusilen. Lleva siete años encerrado. Sorprendentemente, lo ponen en libertad y se reencuentra con una antigua amante, Sarah Vandor, con quien vivió una relación tormentosa.

Es el comienzo de la Guerra Fría. La URSS y Estados Unidos se enfrentan secretamente en el terreno de las ideas, pero eso no excluye que, literalmente, rueden algunas cabezas. Tiempo de canallas es un thriller político, es el recuento de una época, y es, además, una historia de amores y traiciones con un inesperado final.

The USSR and the United States are secretly opposed in the land of ideas, but that doesn't mean that heads won't literally roll. Who is behind these crimes? It's difficult to know. Time of Scoundrels tells it all. It's a political
