One never ceases to be amazed at the creativity of authors like Malenka Ramos. While he was recently talking about his previous horror novel What lives inside, shortly after I found out about her parallel performance in the erotic genre.

The Morelli sisters, Mrs. Owens, the writer Jim Allen, all of them will end up awake in the middle of the night and will probably be the first witnesses of what will begin to happen, before dawn ...
