Those Who Don't Sleep NASH
Get ready for the longest night…
Forensic psychologist Dr “Nash” Elizondo is documenting the origins of a local witchcraft legend across the Tranquil Valleys (Los Valles Tranquilos) in Navarra, Northern Spain, but when she descends into a cave one day she stumbles upon the body of the young victim of an infamous missing persons case. A woman is currently serving time for the crime but this startling discovery three years later will force the reopening of the investigation.
Nash seems to have uncovered more secrets than she had ever bargained for, and alongside the scientific methods she will delve into the psychology of those involved and explore the Basque myths and legends which still roam the countryside and the hearts and minds of the people who live there. As Nash grapples with the implications of her discoveries and her own impending personal crisis, the stakes
could not be higher…
A compelling tale that seamlessly blends reality with mysticism, memory with folklore, delving into our passions, fears and desires, and the intangible essence of what makes us truly human.
