Description

At the heart of crime fiction is an investigation into an act of violence.

Studies of the genre have generally centered on the relationship between the criminal and the investigator.

Focusing on contemporary crime fiction from the Spanish-speaking world, this collection of new essays explores the role of the victim. Contributors discuss how the definition of "victim," the nature of the crime, the identification of the body and its treatment by authorities reflect shifting social landscapes, changing demographics, economic crises and political corruption and instability.
