Description: Espionaje e intriga en estado puro, amores y desamores desgarrados, aventura e historia de un siglo hecho pedazos, Dime quien soy es un apasionante relato protagonizado por unos personajes inolvidables cuyas vidas construyen un magnifico retrato de la historia del siglo XX. Un periodista recibe la propuesta de investigar la vida de su bisabuela, Amelia Garayoa, una mujer de la que solo sabe que huyo abandonando a su marido y a su hijo poco antes de que estallara la guerra civil espanola. Para rescatarla del olvido debera reconstruir su historia desde los cimientos encajando, una a una, todas las piezas del inmenso y extraordinario puzle de su vida. Marcada por cuatro hombres que la cambiaran para siempre -el empresario Santiago Carranza, el revolucionario frances Pierre Comte, el periodista estadounidense Albert James y el medico militar vinculado al nazismo Max von Schumann-, la historia de Amelia es la de una antiheroina presa de sus propias contradicciones que cometera errores que no terminara nunca de pagar y que acabara sufriendo, en carne propia, el azote despiadado tanto del nazismo como de la dictadura sovietica. Desde los anos de la Segunda Republica espanola hasta la caida del Muro de Berlin, pasando por la Segunda Guerra Mundial y la Guerra Fria, la nueva novela de Julia Navarro rebosa intriga, politica, espionaje, amor y traicion.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONA journalist receives a proposal to investigate the eventful life of his great-grandmother, about whom all that is known is that she fled Spain, abandoning her husband and child, shortly before the Civil War broke out.The memoir of an entire century, this novel adds a new, original chapter to Julia Navarro's best-selling career.
