Lisbeth Salander está preparada para la batalla final contra la única persona que, siendo idéntica a ella, es su opuesta en todo: su hermana Camilla. Pero esta vez, Lisbeth tomará la iniciativa. Ha dejado atras Estocolmo, lleva un nuevo peinado y se ha quitado los piercings. Podria pasar por una ejecutiva mas. Pero las ejecutivas no ocultan una pistola bajo la chaqueta, no son hackers expertas ni llevan cicatrices ni tatuajes que les recuerdan que han sobrevivido a lo imposible. Mikael Blomkvist, por su parte, esta investigando la muerte de un mendigo del que solo se sabe que ha fallecido pronunciando el nombre del ministro de Defensa del gobierno sueco y que guardaba el numero de telefono del periodista en el bolsillo. Mikael necesitara la ayuda de Lisbeth, pero para ella el pasado es una bomba a punto de explotar.

When Juno Browne purchased a car for her lover, Daniel Thorncroft, she was not expecting that the previous owner would lock a dead body in the boot. Who the dead man could be is a persistent question, as is the whereabouts of the seller, Amber Horrell. While Inspector Ford and the Ashburton police are on the case, Junos insatiable curiosity and concern for the missing Amber lead her to start sleuthing on her own. It turns out that the Horrells, Ambers family, are notorious in this corner of Devon, with an ancient murder and vanishing red diamond in their past and a shady antiques business very much in their present.With a second murder, Junos involvement in the investigation becomes more complicated and the line between reality and fiction also become blurred. But the truth, she discovers, is far more complicated than it seems.

What marks life in Addis Ababa are the starkly different realities coexisting in one place. Its a growing city taking shape beneath the fraught weight of history, myth, and memory. It is a heady mix. It can also be disorienting, and it is in this space that the stories of Addis Ababa Noir reside . . .These are not gentle stories. They cross into forbidden territories and traverse the damaged terrain of the human heart. The characters in these pages are complicated, worthy of our judgment as much as they somehow manage to elude it. The writers have each discovered their own ways to get us to lean in while forcing us to grit our teeth as we draw closer . . .Despite the varied and distinct voices in these pages, no single book can contain all of the wonderful, intriguing, vexing complexities of Addis Ababa. But what you will read are stories by some of Ethiopias most talented writers living in the country and abroad. Each of them considers the many ways that myth and truth and a countrys dark edges come together to create something wholly originaland unsettling.

Accra is the perfect setting for noir fiction. The telling of such talesones involving or suggesting death, with a protagonist who is flawed or devious, driven by either a self-serving motive or one of the seven deadly sinsis woven into the fabric of the citys everyday life . . .Accra is more than just a capital city. It is a microcosm of Ghana. It is a virtual map of the nations soul, a complex geographical display of its indigenous presence, the colonial imposition, declarations of freedom, followed by coups detat, decades of dictatorship, and then, finally, a steady march forward into a promising future . . .Much like Accra, these stories are not always what they seem. The contributors who penned them know too well how to spin a story into a web . . . It is an honour and a pleasure to share them and all they reveal about Accra, a city of allegories, one of the most dynamic and diverse places in the world.

En medio de ese maremoto, el carismatico y asocial forense Santi Munarriz se enfrenta a uno de los momentos mas complicados de su carrera y de su vida.La novela sigue una estructura coral que permite al lector adentrarse en todos los flancos del sistema: desde las redacciones y las mesas de diseccion del Anatomico Forense, hasta los despachos del poder.Con una prosa afilada, un ritmo narrativo que no da tregua y una lucidez implacable, Carme Chaparro construye una historia adictiva y necesaria. Venganza es un thriller, pero tambien una denuncia. Una cronica emocional y una radiografia de la España mediatica de hoy.

En los Valles Tranquilos no gusta desenterrar secretos ni revelar verdades. Prepárate para la noche más larga. LA NUEVA NOVELA DE DOLORES REDONDO 3.ª ediciónLa psicóloga forense Nash Elizondo documenta el origen de una leyenda sobre brujeria en la sima de Legarrea, en uno de los Valles Tranquilos de Navarra, pero cuando desciende a la sima lo que halla es el cadaver de una joven desaparecida tres años atras, Andrea Dancur; un caso que conmociono al pais entero, y por cuyo crimen una mujer cumple prision. Estamos en marzo de 2020, y el hallazgo y las nuevas pistas obligan a reabrir una investigacion que esta vez se desarrollara en dos planos distintos: por una parte, a traves del metodo cientifico, y por otra, mediante la profundizacion en la psicologia de los implicados y el conocimiento de los misterios ancestrales.Nash Elizondo, que se adentra en un territorio mitico y por momentos hostil, contara con ayudas inesperadas, y se pondra al frente de una estirpe de mujeres que no se doblegan ni siquiera cuando son las victimas.Los acontecimientos se suceden vertiginosamente en un relato que leemos con el corazon en un puño, sin tregua, de la mano maestra de Dolores Redondo. Con unos secundarios inolvidables, asomandonos al abismo de la crueldad y en una atmosfera de presagios e intuiciones, parte esencial de su envolvente mundo literario.
