Three times Death to Fermín Salvochea

Jesús Cañadas

1907: Four suburban children are chasing the monsters of an atmospheric turn of the

century Cádiz, together with some of the world’s most famous vampire hunters of their

time. It all started back in 1873 when the new mayor of the city, Fermín Salvochea, a

famously beloved figure in the Spanish Anarchist movement, started hunting down

some of the sources of evil in his city. In the novel, his assistant will be the father of one

of our small protagonists, a barber with good looks but also very prone to drinking and

whoring around. But Juaíco conserves a pure heart and this is what Salvochea needs for

his fight. However, when Salvochea dies in 1907, his dead body disappears and his former

assistant completely looses control, so now the children have to take over: But some

of their demons are also terribly real, like the head of the orphanage where the two girls

are mistreated and harshly punished, for crimes they never committed. Now, even their

secret hiding place, the rabbithole, might not be able to protect them...
