Abstract

This article explores the figure of the investigator as an individual disjointed from society in the Central American novel Los días y los muertos (2016) by Giovanni Rodríguez. The analysis intends to study the construction of the journalist López in front of an anomic and chaotic society of San Pedro Sula. This approach allows, from a hermeneutical technique understand how the investigative character works from reflections and criminal behavior.
