Official synopsis Publisher
Quiero cambiar. Necesito cambiar. Estoy perdiendo el contacto conmigo misma.
A sus 31 años, Linda tiene todo aquello que muchos sueñan y pocos logran conseguir: una vida perfecta en Ginebra, Suiza. De pronto, sin previo aviso, se reencuentra con Jacob, su antiguo amor de la escuela, quien irrumpe en su vida para sacarla de su letargo y hacerla sentir de nuevo esa pasión inesperada que creía olvidada.
Adulterio nos adentra en el eterno debate entre luchar contra la tentación o dejarnos arrastrar por ella. Un libro explícito y directo que rompe tabús y cuestiona la necesidad de vivir aquella vida que no nos atrevemos frente a la apatía, la resignación y el temor al cambio.
Hay algunas emociones oscuras que se quedan por vivir.
