A graphic novel by Paco Roca and the journalist Rodrigo Terrasa, published in 2023 and based on real events. In 1940 José Celda was shot by Franco's regime along with eleven other men at the cemetery of Paterna, in Valencia, and buried in a mass grave; more than seventy years later his daughter Pepica, now in her eighties, sets out to find his remains. At its centre is also Leoncio Badía, a young Republican forced to work as a gravedigger, who secretly helped the widows of the executed.

Why we only look at used copies

In Spain, Law 10/2007 fixes the price of new books: the publisher sets it and shops can only take 5% off. Amazon, FNAC and your local bookshop all cost the same. The only place the price moves is second-hand.
