Before, there was nothing. Then, there was light. It was like lighting a million LED candles in a haze. And then the three characters appeared: first Betty, an obese 17-year-old girl, then Annabelle, a beautiful 42-year-old woman, a successful professional, and finally Edward, a very depressed man around 50. The three characters, as dissimilar as they are unknown, have entered the delusional head of the writer John Phillips, who orders them to act to develop the plot of his novel. With that, a plot begins, that emerges as the characters interrelate, always in conflict with the author, who wants to dominate them, which the others do not. Permanently monitored by him, the three face successive pressing circumstances until they find themselves involved in an unthinkable intrigue. Neither the author, nor Scriptor, his universal narrator, know in advance where the action is going, which makes the plot that unfolds like a spider weaves its web very unpredictable. As time goes by, the three characters discover that their individual lives have long been linked, without their knowledge, to a global financial conspiracy. Always governed by their very particular personalities, they solve the problems they are faced with, which leads them to create an emotional community that is completely unexpected. Over and over again they try to escape the author's clutches and practically force him to play along with them. Neither the novelist nor the narrator know what is going to happen in their story. It is a delirious experiment in which the characters have been left the task of creating the plot. In the end, with great cunning, the three manage to discover the fraud and punish those involved in it. By the way, they know love.
Ramdohr, E. R.: -
Nacióoacute; el añntilde;o 1952 en Santiago en el seno de una familia de clase media con un padre abogado y una madre corredora de propiedades. Cursó la enseñanza primaria y secundaria en el Colegio Alemáaacute;n de Santiago. Desde muy chico fue un asiduo lector, tanto en español como en alemán.
Estudió luego, desde 1971, en la Facultad de Arquitectura de la Universidad de Chile, obteniendo el año 1978 el tíiacute;tulo de arquitecto.
Se casó el año 1975 a los 22 años con María Soledad Silva, con quien permanece casado desde esa fecha, habiendo tenido 5 hijos a los que educó en colegios de habla alemana.
Con su esposa formaron el año 1979 la Empresa Constructora Ramcon Limitada, la que dirigió hasta el año 2015. Para ponerse al día con las tecnologías aprendió, primero, programación computacional, más tarde dibujo asistido por computador (autocad) y finalmente la versión más moderna de los sistemas BIM, Revit. Tambiéeacute;n hizo cursos de administración de empresas y negocio inmobiliario.
Desde los tiempos colegiales siempre tuvo habilidad para la escritura, tanto como para la redacción de ensayos. El año 2005, tardíamente, se decidió emplear su capacidad para escribir una novela, la que sería precursora de otras tantas que tiene escritas hasta esta fecha.
El año 2015 decidió cerrar su empresa y dedicarse exclusivamente a su tarea como escritor. Con tal motivo se incorporó al taller literario de Gonzalo Contreras, siendo ésta la segunda experiencia de este tipo, después de haber estado antes con Carla Guelfenbein. El año 2016 hizo en la Facultad de Letras de la Universidad Diego Portales un Diplomado en Escritura Creativa, graduándose con nota 7. Además, hizo un curso virtual de Lectura Profesional dictado por la Asociación de Escritores de España.
Habiéndose interesado en la novela histórica, el escritor ha hecho exhaustivas investigaciones en torno a la historia de Chile y ha participado en dos seminarios dictados por la Universidad San Sebastián relativos a los tiempos de la Colonia y de la Independencia.
