Description:
Un thriller histórico que corta la respiración. Repleto de acción, intriga, romance e historia, Lo último que verán tus ojos es la novela más vibrante de Isabel San Sebastián. La dignidad de un hombre se mide por cómo hace frente a la muerte. Un valioso Greco del que no se tenía noticia sale a subasta en Nueva York.
Carolina Valdés, sofisticada marchante de arte, recibe en su hotel la visita de Philip, un rudo taxista de Brooklyn, quien la embarca en una peligrosa aventura destinada a demostrar que el cuadro, robado por los nazis a su familia, le pertenece. Arranca así una investigación trepidante que llevará a la extraña pareja desde la Budapest del Holocausto, donde el diplomático español Ángel Sanz Briz salvó a millares de judíos, hasta el Madrid de la Segunda Guerra Mundial, repleto de alemanes, con el salón de té Embassy convertido en epicentro del espionaje internacional. Juntos harán frente a terribles secretos del pasado, mientras va creciendo entre ellos una intimidad capaz de vencer sus ancestrales prejuicios.
