While some of his works were censored in Spain during the Franco period, Spanish journalist and novelist Francisco González Ledesma was financially forced to produce a Western novella per week under the pseudonym of Silver Kane. From the journalist’s trade, which requires the constant and forced exercise of telling stories, there emerged an authentic writer, whose style is clear, precise, relevant and highly evocative. Moreover, González Ledesma is faithful to his people and to his humble origins. Soldados is the story of the three old men from those old neighborhoods, who at the end of their lives and for different reasons —curiosity, vengeance or desperation— start off together on a search.
