This article examines the novel Bioy (2012) by Diego Trelles Paz (Lima, 1977), considering its links with the traditional detective story and the American hardboiled novel. It explores the effects of violence in bodies and subjectivities of masculine and female characters employing the three dimensions of violence proposed by Johan Galtung. In addition, the article identifies a break with some of the hardboiled novel's elements, particularly those related with the system of characters, as well as the use of multiple voices and narrative perspectives, all this considering the ability of a genre whose history has been typified by a principle of obsolescence (a concept proposed by Jacques Dubois) suitable for a narrative that portrays a society in crisis and exposed to violence.
