In an attempt to unravel the mystery behind a puzzling murder that occurred 27 years ago, a man goes back to the village where it happened. Everyone says that only a few hours after marrying the beautiful Angela Vicario, Bayardo San Roman shamefully returned his wife to her parents. Her brothers declared their plan to kill Santiago Nasar for belittling their sister, and her heartbroken relatives made her disclose the identity of her first boyfriend.
Therefore, why didn't anybody step in to attempt to stop the murder if everyone knew it was going to happen? Less is understood the more is revealed, and as the narrative rushes to its puzzling end, a whole society—rather than simply two murderers—is tried.
