A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year A Best Book of the Summer: Los Angeles Times and Publishers Weekly An Amazon Best Book of the Month (Mystery, Thriller & Suspense) Three years have passed since Gustavo, a renowned psycholinguist, last spoke to his closest friend, Daniel, who has been interned in a psychiatric ward for murdering his fianc e. When Daniel unexpectedly calls to confess the truth behind the crime, Gustavo's long buried fraternal loyalty resurfaces and draws him into the center of a quixotic investigation. While Daniel reveals his unsettling story using fragments of fables, novels, and historical allusions, Gustavo begins to retrace the past for clues: from their early college days exploring dust-filled libraries and exotic brothels to Daniel's intimate attachment to his sickly younger sister and his dealings as a book collector. As the circumstances grow increasingly intricate, Gustavo is forced to deduce an sinister series of events from allegories that are more real than police reports and metaphors more revealing than evidence. With sumptuous prose and haunting imagery, Faver n Patriau has crafted an unforgettable, labyrinthine tale of murder, madness, and passion that is as entertaining as it is erudite and dark as it is illuminating.Binding Type: Paperback

Moisturized without feeling greasy
Size: 4.05 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Been using this Batana Oil for a few weeks and my hair already feels thicker, softer, and healthier. I’ve noticed less shedding and my scalp stays moisturized without feeling greasy. You can tell it’s natural and high quality. Definitely worth trying if you’re dealing with thinning or breakage.

So Far So Great
Size: 4.05 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 4.05 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Super excited to add this product into my hair care regimen. The batana oil has a mild but pleasant smell. The oil is more of a paste so I don’t have to use much. On days when I layer products, I like to oil my scalp and hair strands and apply the batana oil to my ends as a sealant. I also apply it to my hairline and scalp sometimes. So far it has made my hair feel and look moisturizer, soft and fuller. I’m very excited to see the positive effects that it has long term. I was encouraged to apply the product from the plethora of positive reviews. And the fact that batana oil is proven to be great for hair health.

Moisturizer type 4 hair
Size: 4.05 Fl Oz (Pack of 1), Size: 4.05 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This oil provided my type 4 hair a lot of moisture. The texture of this product is moist. It worked for me when I needed the extra moisture to pull back my hair or to stretch my hair prior to twisting or braiding. I used it about 3 times a week. I’ve had it a months and I still have almost 1/2 a jar left. If you are looking for shine, this one provided shine but only after I brushed it. Overtime it helped my hair be easier to work with. The smell is okay - nothing overbearing that interfered with my own perfume. Look at the picture and you can see that it came sealed very well. Buy it and see for yourself how great it is.
