The Box and the Briefcase, the Moleque and the Old Man and the First Coming of the Second Son of God

From the author of Know Your Baker, John M. Keller's second novel explores the gated city of Beverly Hills, Brazil, capital and seedbed of the world's soap opera industry, sitting halfway between São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, a place no one ever goes to or leaves, where admission depends upon meeting a beauty requirement. Sylmara, a young actress on the brink of becoming the city's next great export, is shocked when her celebrity aunt, famous for her award-winning breasts, and in whose footsteps Sylmara is poised to follow, leaves the community without telling anyone and immediately turns up dead. Will Sylmara follow suit by leaving, also dying in the favelas just outside the gates?
