Bajo la apariencia de una vida normal, Ella Black esconde un rasgo de carácter inquietante: en su interior anida un impulso destructor —al que llama Bella, contracción de Bad Ella— que se apodera de sus actos y causa estragos en su día a día. Sin embargo, esta batalla íntima no es su único secreto: tras verse forzada por sus padres a un precipitado e inexplicable viaje a Brasil, descubrirá que su existencia se cimenta sobre un engaño. Disgustada y confundida, Ella se lanza a una búsqueda desesperada que la conducirá al lugar más insospechado, las favelas de Río de Janeiro, con el propósito de desvelar las verdades y mentiras que, como dos fuerzas contrapuestas, iluminan y ensombrecen lo más hondo de sí misma. En este relato trepidante, que se desarrolla en escenarios casi cinematográficos y con un ritmo vertiginoso, Emily Barr —autora del aclamado éxito de ventas El último recuerdo de Flora Banks— indaga en la convulsa psique de una joven que lucha por conocer su identidad y liberarse de las ataduras que coartan su personalidad.
