The story is told from the points of view of five different characters: Mrs. Milagros, David Reguel, Camilo Canegato, Miss Eufrasia Morales, and Marta Correga. The inspector, Julian Aguirre, puts the five testimonies together to solve the case. Each of these characters uses the first person point of view as he or she explains to the inspector what happened.

Although the characters are all talking about the same set of events, they all tell the story quite differently, based on their perspectives, their personalities, their backgrounds, and their affection or contempt for other characters. Therefore, this story is an interesting study in point of view. Within this one novel, readers can compare and contrast the points of view based on the above elements.
