Hasta la cima de la montaña

The setting feels almost like a character itself—how much of the scenery was drawn from real places, and what role does it play in shaping the story's mood?

The story had a great rhythm overall, but the middle chapters seemed more reflective. I'm curious if this was a deliberate choice to deepen character development or atmosphere.

The characters' motivations felt layered and realistic. I wonder what process the author uses to craft such nuanced personalities within a crime narrative.
