When he discovers he's been mistaken for the dead woman's secret lover, Samuel becomes fascinated with the idea of impersonating this man and invents an elaborate life story, which he shares with Carina, Clara's sister. As Samuel becomes more attached to the memory of Clara and more attracted to Carina, the game he's created spins out of his control. Will the love he's crafted save him or will it end up burying him? La invenci n del amor combines classic thriller elements with the immediacy of journalism. Narrated in first person, the inquisitive and ironic voice of its lead character slowly reveals the deceptions of love and its fundamental importance."
