Indigo: A Novel

by Christopher Golden Charlaine Harris Kelley Armstrong Jonathan Maberry

In a brilliant collaboration by New York Times and critically acclaimed coauthors Charlaine Harris, Christopher Golden, Kelley Armstrong, Jonathan Maberry, Kat Richardson, Seanan McGuire, Tim Lebbon, Cherie Priest, James A. Moore, and Mark Morris join forces to bring you a crime-solving novel like you’ve never read before. Investigative reporter Nora Hesper spends her nights cloaked in shadows. As Indigo, she’s become an urban myth, a brutal vigilante who can forge darkness into weapons and travel across the city by slipping from one patch of shadow to another. Her primary focus both as Nora and as Indigo has become a murderous criminal cult called the Children of Phonos. Children are being murdered in New York, and Nora is determined to make it stop, even if that means Indigo must eliminate every member. But in the aftermath of a bloody battle, a dying cultist makes claims that cause Indigo to question her own origin and memories. Nora’s parents were killed when she was nineteen years old. She took the life insurance money and went off to explore the world, leading to her becoming a student of meditation and strange magic in a mountaintop monastery in Nepal…a history that many would realize sounds suspiciously like the origins of several comic book characters. As Nora starts to pick apart her memory, it begins to unravel. Her parents are dead, but the rest is a series of lies. Where did she get the power inside her?

Luke In Irlanda ero un mercenario o un terrorista, in base a come la si vedeva. Mi ero lasciato tutto alle spalle, ma le mie uniche capacità erano quelle apprese dal lato sbagliato della legge. A Greco piaceva questo di me. Forse gli ricordavo se stesso mentre si faceva strada nella mafia. Ero leale al mio Boss. Ero lì per proteggerlo ad ogni costo e contro ogni minaccia. Poi ho conosciuto LEI. Elda non era come le altre ragazze con cui ero stato. Il modo in cui si muoveva, il modo in cui camminava era diverso. Sapevo di doverla avere. Ma avrei dovuto sapere che tutti hanno un passato...quello che non mi aspettavo era quanto i segreti di Elda fossero vicini ad entrambi. Elda Greco è mio padre. Non quello che mi ha cresciuta, ma quello biologico. Sono stata una gravidanza indesiderata, il risultato di una relazione che Greco avrebbe tenuto segreta a tutti i costi. Non sarei sopravvissuta se mia madre non si fosse nascosta. Ha messo me davanti a tutto ed è morta partorendomi perché sapeva che Greco l'avrebbe uccisa se fosse andata in ospedale. Da quando l'ho scoperto, sapevo che avrei vendicato la sua morte. Mi sono allenata per anni per essere a questo livello. Greco ha il meglio per la sua protezione. Avevo solo bisogno del momento giusto per fargliela pagare. Ma poi ho incontrato Luke. Un uomo dai segreti profondi e logoranti quanto il mio. Il destino è una stronza capricciosa. Ma io avrò la mia vendetta su Greco e avrò Luke. I segreti possono andare a fan*ulo. Questo è il primo libro della serie Omertà. Si tratta di un romanzo dark mafia. NON ci sono imbrogli, NIENTE suspense e lieto fine garantito!
