This article aims to investigate the mechanisms of the political and social denunciation in La novela de Remón, written by Juan Antonio Gómez and published in 2014. The novel tells the conspiracy and murder of President José Antonio Remón Cantera on January 2, 1955, in Panama City, a crime that constituted the only magnicide in the history of Panama and that brought innumerable political consequences. From the selection and analysis of chosen fragments, it will be concluded that this novel serves as a vehicle to denounce the political and proper social problems that, still today, afflict Panamanian society.
