City of the Lost
by Kelley ArmstrongWhere would you go if you suddenly had to disappear? In her new thriller, City of the Lost, our New York Times and Globe and Mail bestselling author Kelley Armstrong delivers us to Rockton, a secret little town in the far north where the hunted go to hide. And where a hunter has now come to play. Casey Duncan once killed a man and got away with it. But that's not why she's on the run. Her best friend's ex has found Diana again, despite all Casey has done to protect her. And Diana has decided the only way she'll ever be safe is if she finds the mythical town she's heard of where people like her can go to hide. Turns out the town really exists, and will take Diana, but only if Casey, a talented young police detective, comes too. Imagine a hidden town, isolated in the Yukon wilderness, where everyone is pretending to be someone they're not. Even good people can get up to some very bad stuff. The laconic town sheriff dispenses his own frontier justice, but he's more accustomed to sobering up drunks in the horse trough, than attempting to solve the series of brutal murders that has rocked the town. As much as he hates it, he needs Casey. As for Casey, coming to the far North may have started out as a sacrifice she was willing to make for her best friend. But maybe, just maybe, she needs Rockton as much as the town needs her. From the Hardcover edition.

by Joaquim G. BenítezEn mayo de 1937 unos brutales asesinatos asolan Barcelona. A finales del mes abril de 1937, en una Barcelona alejada del frente de guerra, el inspector Ramón Valdivia y el agente Joan Alegret intentan dar caza a un asesino de mujeres, mientras la ciudad, asediada por barricadas, se debate en una lucha por el poder entre las diferentes facciones de una república amenazada de muerte por el avance de las fuerzas franquistas. Valdivia y Alegret recorrerán sus oscuras calles donde nada es lo que parece y donde los políticos, estraperlistas, militares, espías, brigadistas, policías corruptos y proxenetas campan a sus anchas. La resolución del caso, con claras connotaciones religiosas, hará reflexionar a los protagonistas sobre la tenue línea que separa el bien del mal, la inocencia de la culpabilidad, la vida de la muerte. Ramón Valdivia, un policía veterano provisto de un especial sentido del humor, mujeriego, pendenciero y amante de la buena mesa, deberá confiar en Joan Alegret, un policía idealista, recién llegado al cuerpo, inteligente y culto. Alegret, con un enigmático pasado, tratará de aplicar innovadores conocimientos criminalísticos a la resolución del caso, pese a las iniciales reticencias de su superior, más habituado a los expeditivos y tradicionales procedimientos policiales. Mientras recorren Barcelona, Ramón Valdivia y Joan Alegret irán estrechando su amistad, a la vez que van apareciendo personajes de todo tipo: Cayetana Blázquez, una joven miliciana que hará perder la cabeza a Alegret; López de Sagredo, un criminólogo poco acostumbrado a estar en la escena de un crimen; Josep Casamitjana, un forense harto de su trabajo; Fernando Navarrete, el comisario jefe, principal valedor de Alegret; Antonio, el sacabuches, matón de los bajos fondos de la ciudad; Rosario, la Turca, prostituta y matrona del Raval; camareros, policías, espías, políticos y militares. Todos ellos irán completando el mosaico humano de una ciudad a punto de estallar.

Ciudadano
by John Carter“En los últimos meses han ocurrido asesinatos en la ciudad. Las víctimas parecen ser escogidas con un perfil bastante peculiar: sospechosos que tuvieron reducción de sentencias por audiencias de custodia o por un juez de derecho con sospechas de ser corrupto”. Mientras tanto, en algún sótano de la ciudad: ─¿Qué quieres conmigo? ¿Por qué me secuestraste? ¿Eres miembro de una pandilla? Si es así, sepa que mis colegas no dejarán esto así… Espera, yo te conozco, no deberían actuar así. No es lo que ustedes hacen. No tienes ese derecho… ─Con base en mi análisis jurídico, no estás en condiciones de vivir en sociedad. Las letras del derecho criminal le dieron libertad, pero, es necesario ir más allá cuando se juzga el bien común. No creo que un ser que arrebata la vida de varias personas deba conservar sus derechos. Es un intercambio y tú lo hiciste cuando decidiste arrebatar la vida de aquellos inocentes. ─Pero… tu obligación es seguir la ley… ¡No puedes matarme! Tú no eres un criminal… ─Declaro pena de muerte. No tienes derecho a permanecer callado. Al contrario, puedes gritar incluso maldecir, porque te dolerá…
