Márcio Guerra: half private detective, half vigilante, 100% scoundrel.

Solving pulp cases behind the wheel of his Chevette and with a "thirty-eight" on his waist, in a time without cell phones, without computers and without "political correctness".

Revisit 17 cases of private detective Márcio Guerra, set sometime in the 1980s. Little by little, get to know the former civil police officer, who left his badge behind for reasons that vary depending on who you ask.

Appreciate his refined investigation method: boot's soles, saliva, wet palms, beatings and lead, not necessarily to solve the case, if there is money in the game, or harsh, harsh justice to be applied.

Put yourself in the passenger seat of Guerra's beige Chevette, and follow him through each of the most important mysteries of his career, from the moment the client walks through the door until its outcome--however heinous it may be.

Eduardo Capistrano's third book seeks inspiration from detective stories of pulp magazines, not only in content but also in presentation, each one unfolding sufficiently in itself, as if it were published in issues of a periodical.
