Justicia
by Javier Díez CarmonaUna oleada de crímenes está tiñendo de sangre las calles de Bilbao para exigir JUSTICIA. Antonio Arzamendi, exdirector de una sucursal bancaria jubilado, amanece con la noticia del asesinato de Rosa, el amor de su vida y la compañera de trabajo con quien planeaba compartir un tranquilo retiro en Choroní, su particular paraíso caribeño. La policía habla de robo con violencia, pero el único testigo, un militar cubano retirado que llegó a la ciudad en busca de respuestas sobre el asesinato de su hijo, insiste en haber presenciado algo semejante a una ejecución. Ante el empeño de Arzamendi por conocer la verdad, el testigo, Osmany Arechabala, decide ayudarlo. La misma noche de la muerte de Rosa aparece el cadáver de un hombre junto a un banco donde alguien ha escrito la palabra «Justicia». Dos días después, el asesinato de la hija de un acaudalado empresario de la construcción en el puerto viejo de Algorta pone en guardia a las autoridades. Y, a través de un portal de noticias sensacionalista, se comienza a difundir la teoría de que existe una organización dedicada a asesinar a empresarios y banqueros. Osmany, Arzamendi y Borja Maruri, un investigador experto en fraudes contratado por la familia de una de las víctimas, tratarán de descubrir la identidad de los culpables y los motivos que se ocultan tras sus acciones. La verdad no será agradable para nadie.

Caught in a deadly conflict between the ironies of the law and the demands of his Christian convictions, Millsaps finds himself protecting Melissa from a psychopathic stalker’s lethal game of cat-and-mouse . . . even as evidence collects that could send to prison not an inhuman criminal, but the woman Millsaps has come to love. Justifiable Means is the second book in the Sun Coast Chronicles by award-winning author Terri Blackstock. From absorbing legal drama to lightning-paced action, the Sun Coast Chronicles offers suspense at its finest, tempered with remarkable realism and penetrating insights into the human heart.

When Hamilton arrives at the Callahan Group’s K Street office to tender her resignation, she unwittingly interrupts a deadly heist during which the robbers have stolen the company safe and left her boss gravely injured.
