Segismundo García is an unsuccessful traveling salesman who believes he has found his life's work: selling low-cost bunkers to the poor. He promises salvation from the coming global collapse to anyone who can afford it.

However, Segismundo himself is going through hard times, both personally and financially. He has a complicated relationship with his son and father. Three generations of swindlers are obsessed with the idea of social upliftment, but fail time after time.

The action of the novel unfolds over the course of one day, during which we follow Segismundo on his commercial trips and search for a "treasure" that can solve all his family problems. On his journey, he encounters different people whose views and actions, challenging his pessimism and sarcasm, prove that a better world is still possible.

A Safe Place is a novel that is both captivating and thought-provoking, reflecting with irony and challenge on the atmosphere of uncertainty that reigns in modern society.
