Overview

The Daydreamer and the Detective tells the story of Karina, a Venezuelan woman living in Bogotá, who becomes entangled in a spiral of intense and vivid daydreams as a way to escape the wounds of her past-marked by a painful divorce and the loss of her beloved dog, Osa. Struggling daily for stability and weighed down by loneliness, Karina turns to her fantasies-a phenomenon known as maladaptive daydreaming-which, while offering her a connection to her deepest desires, also distance her from reality. Karina's path crosses with Aidan, an enigmatic true crime YouTuber known as the Detective of Glasgow, whose mysterious videos and magnetic presence awaken a mixture of hope and vulnerability in her. As the story unfolds, Karina's daydreams weave into imagined encounters and conversations that, although they exist only in her mind, leave a profound mark on her reality-pushing her to explore her identity and break free from the need for external validation. The novel is a journey of self-discovery and empowerment, where the protagonist confronts the tension between a rich inner world of fantasies and the raw reality of everyday life, in an attempt to rebuild herself and find a path toward genuine happiness.
