Marvin O. Menjívar, nacido en 1993 en El Salvador. Soy amante de los idiomas y las artes, en especial la literatura. Escribo literatura contemporánea de ficción; misterio y suspenso son mi predilección, siempre con un toque de drama y con personajes ambivalentes que demuestran la complejidad de la naturaleza humana a través de diferentes matices. Mis novelas suelen tener como tema principal la venganza, el arrepentimiento, el rencor, la soledad y como contraparte la redención y la resignación.
