The police say Jauma was a 'womanizer' and he was murdered buy a pimp. Pepe discovers that Jauma was a womanizer--in "the least pleasant sense", as an associate informs him, but he decides the police are wrong anyway, and goes at the case with his normal, phlegmatic doggedness-that is, with time out for a signature philosophical book-burning or two(Sarte, Sholokhov), cooking a grand meal or two(leek soup, freshly caught steamed turbot, discussing democracy, fascism, and communism with his assistant, and relaxing with his girlfriend Charo, whose last name he can't remember.
