The Angel Court Affair: A Charlotte and Thomas Pitt Novel
by Anne PerryIn New York Times bestselling author Anne Perry, the glorious era when Britain reigned supreme has found its most brilliant modern interpreter. Perry's gripping new Charlotte and Thomas Pitt novel invites us back to Victorian London, where greed and ambition never sleep, and passion sometimes runs riot. As the nineteenth century draws to a close, most of Europe is in political turmoil, and terrorist threats loom large across the continent. Adding to this unrest is the controversial Sofia Delacruz, who has come to London from Spain to preach a revolutionary gospel of love and forgiveness that many consider blasphemous. Thomas Pitt, commander of Special Branch, is charged with protecting Sofia--and shielding Her Majesty's government from any embarrassment that this woman, as beautiful as she is charismatic, might cause. When Sofia suddenly vanishes and two of her female disciples are gruesomely murdered, Pitt is challenged as never before. Is Sofia's cousin, wealthy banker Barton Hall, somehow involved? And why has handsome cricket star Dalton Teague insinuated himself into Pitt's investigation? Fearful that this sensational crime may trigger an international incident, Pitt welcomes the help of three allies: his clever wife, Charlotte; her great-aunt, Lady Vespasia; and Victor Narraway, Pitt's friend and former commander at Special Branch. From the narrow streets of Toledo and a lonely monastery high in the hills of Spain, to the halls and wharves of London, Pitt and his friends race against time in their desperate bid to catch a murderer.

El ángel de Múnich
by Fabiano MassimiEL THRILLER HISTÓRICO DEL AÑO N.º 1 EN VENTAS EN ITALIA ¿Qué se esconde detrás de la muerte de Geli Raubal, sobrina de Hitler y su único verdadero amor? «Un thriller que podría haber escrito Ken Follett.»Paola Sorge, Il Venerdì «Preciso, imaginativo y brillante.»Donato Carrisi, Il Corriere della Sera Múnich, 1931. Falta poco para que unas históricas elecciones otorguen el poder a los nazis. Los comisarios Siegfried Sauer y Mutti Forster se enfrentan al aburrido turno del sábado cuando el director de la policía criminal les avisa de un suceso en el número 16 de Prinzregentenplatz, la vivienda de Adolf Hitler. Su sobrina, Geli Raubal, ha sido hallada muerta. Todo apunta a un suicidio, pero Sauer no está convencido. Algunos testigos se contradicen y ha desaparecido la pequeña esvástica de oro que la joven siempre llevaba al cuello. Sus sospechas son confirmadas cuando el mismo Hitler le pide que encuentre al culpable y van apareciendo notas firmadas con una misteriosa H. Tras años de estudio de bibliografía y fuentes inéditas, Fabiano Massimi destapa en este aclamado y revolucionario thriller literario las tramas y las personalidades históricas que protagonizaron un caso real que estuvo a punto de cambiar el curso de la Historia. La crítica ha dicho...«De la mano de un escritor que conjuga la erudición de un historiador, las fuentes de un periodista y la capacidad narrativa de un novelista, [...] El ángel de Múnich se sumerge en la historia antes de que se escribiera con mayúsculas.»Juan Losa, Público «Una novela muy interesante que recrea muy bien el ambiente fatídico de aquella época y que, además, tiene la gracia de darnos una visión de los primeros días del nazismo, de la creación de aquel sistema fanático, del culto a la personalidad que consiguió provocar Hitler y cómo todos los que le rodean intentan protegerle, justificarle y defenderle de miradas ajenas.»Benjamín Prado, Todos somos sospechosos (Radio 3) «Un thriller que podría haber escrito Ken Follett [...] Una trama adictiva y llena de giros.»Paola Sorge, Il Venerdì «El ángel de Múnich se basa en una realidad histórica, pero al mismo tiempo la supera gracias a aquello que la Historia nunca podrá tener: un narrador. Y en este caso, un narrador preciso, imaginativo y brillante.»Donato Carrisi «Una novela que arroja luz sobre la escandalosa pasión de Hitler por su sobrina. En los Juicios de Núremberg de 1946, Hermann Göring declaró que tras la muerte de Geli todo rastro de humanidad en Hitler desapareció.»Igor Ruggeri, Gente «Lo tiene todo para convertirse en un éxito: una historia olvidada por la Historia, un estilo literario, atmósferas cinematográficas y el ritmo voraz de las series de televisión.»Gian Paolo Serino, Il Giornale «Un nuevo autor y una historia con un ritmo trepidante.»Roselina Salemi, Io Donna «Un thriller emocionante que devuelve a la vida uno de los casos sin resolver más oscuros de la Historia.»Bruna Magi, Libero «La muerte que pudo haber frenado a Hitler. [...] Un experimento social del autor: transformar al lector en un ciudadano alemán de la época para que viva y sienta los motivos, de otra manera inexplicables, del ascenso del dictador. [...] Un thriller que no deja hueco para la fantasía.»Marcello Cocco, L'Unione Sarda «Un testimonio conmovedor que honra a la primera víctima de la propaganda nazi: Geli Raubal.»Milanonera.com<P
