Mercedes Rosende teje en "Qué ganas de no verte nunca más" una novela negra vertiginosa y atrapante. Como caracteriza a la autora, la psicología de los personajes es tan sugestiva como la acción que los acompaña. En este caso, la historia se desdobla en múltiples relatos ambientados en una Montevideo oculta y poco común para los simples mortales. Intrigas, muertes, robos, corrupción, chantajes y secretos rodean a la protagonista, dando vida a esa ciudad que se mueve en las tinieblas y en un túnel que, aunque oculto, permanece en la memoria.
