THE SUGAR DADDY
The Story of the Man They Called the Sugar Daddy
In the year 2041, a nation obsessed with certainty gets exactly what it asked for: a machine that cannot lie.
Raúl Aguilar - once a senator, once the country's most followed voice online, now simply "the Sugar Daddy" - sits before Judge Amara Vásquez charged with a death the whole country has already convicted him of in their hearts. To defend himself, he does something no one expects: he volunteers to wear the truth helmet, a device that projects a person's own memories, unfiltered, onto a courtroom hologram for the entire nation to watch live.

Not just read its story.
Converse with it. Ask questions. Discover secrets. Delve deeper into its characters. Find messages that might have gone unnoticed.
THIS IS NOT JUST ANY BOOK. IT'S A LIVE BOOK.
A new reading experience that turns the reader into an active participant in the work.
When you finish a chapter, when a scene surprises you, or when you want to better understand a character's decisions, you will be able to interact with the LIVE BOOK and ask it anything you want about the work:
Why did that character act that way?
What is the meaning of a specific scene?
What are the hidden messages of the story?
What values does the novel convey?
What topics can you debate with other readers, with family, or in the classroom?
The experience doesn't end on the last page.
The LIVE BOOK allows you to explore the story, talk about its characters, analyze their conflicts, and discover new interpretations every time you return to the work.
You are no longer just a reader. YOU ARE PART OF THE EXPERIENCE.
READ THE BOOK. TALK TO IT. ASK. DISCOVER. RE-READ IT WITH NEW EYES.
Because millions of books can tell a story. But very few can keep conversing with you after you finish reading them.
DISCOVER THE LIVE BOOK. A NEW WAY OF READING STARTS HERE.
What unfolds is not the confession anyone wanted. As Raúl's memories rise before the court - a gala where he first noticed a seventeen-year-old named Emilia, a suitcase of gifts brought home to her sister Julia, a penthouse on the night that ended in a fall from a balcony - the case stops being about guilt or innocence and becomes something far more dangerous: a mirror held up to a country that has organized itself into two colors, two tribes, two competing versions of the truth, and that may not survive what the mirror shows back.
The Sugar Daddy is a courtroom drama wrapped around a speculative near-future, a story about consent, power, and the stories people tell themselves to avoid the uncomfortable truth in between. It asks what happens when technology finally delivers the one thing a divided society claimed to want - and turns out to want a great deal less than it thought.
For readers of speculative courtroom fiction and morally complex character studies, where the verdict is never as simple as guilty or not guilty.
