The Mummy's Ransom
by Fred W. HunterA controversial exhibit of Chinchorro mummies is about to open in Chicago at Dolores Tower, the latest building by the equally controversial local developer Louie Dolores. The mummies - dating from 2000 to 7000 BC - are incredibly fragile, making their transportation and display very risky. Even worse, the pending exhibition is being protested by a group who regard the exploitation of the mummies to be desecration of their ancient dead, leading to both tension and excitement over the coming opening. Lucky for Chicago Police Detective Jeremy Ransom none of this has anything to do with him. He figures as long as he can keep his friend, the elderly Miss Emily Charters, away from the opening, then there won't be a murder and he won't have to get involved. But first there are reports that a mummy is moving around the exhibit at night, then there are death threats against the developer, and when one night, alone in the exhibit, Louie Dolores is attacked by one of the mummies, Ransom is assigned to find out what's going on. With the sharp wits and intelligence of Emily at his beck and call, Ransom has to sort out the truth in what could be his strangest assignment ever before the a volatile situation turns fatal.

Un mundo soñado
by Grace McCleenUna historia de suspense creciente que brindará al lector la posibilidad de asomarse al opaco universo del fundamentalismo religioso, donde la fe y la razón libran una batalla despiadada. Distinguida con el Desmond Elliott Prize 2012, esta audaz y conmovedora primera novela de la escritora galesa Grace McCleen fue recibida con ferviente entusiasmo por la crítica literaria del Reino Unido y sin duda permanecerá en el recuerdo del lector durante largo tiempo. El personaje central es una niña extraordinaria en una situación extraordinaria. Huérfana de madre desde su nacimiento, Judith vive atrapada entre dos mundos excluyentes. Por un lado su padre, un fundamentalista cristiano que recorre las calles predicando la verdadera fe y le impone una rigurosa disciplina anclada en el pasado. Y por otro la escuela, donde su carácter peculiar incita las burlas y agresiones de sus compañeros. Para evadirse, Judith ha construido en su habitación una réplica de su ciudad con figuritas de alambre, un cielo de gasa, un arco iris de brillante papel de caramelos y muchos otros elementos rescatados de la basura: un auténtico refugio donde dejar volar la imaginación. Así, cuando, al día siguiente de haber simulado que la nieve cubría su poblado en miniatura, una nevada verdadera cae prematuramente a comienzos del otoño, Judith se cree capaz de obrar milagros. A partir de ese momento, una serie de coincidencias entre los juegos de la niña y determinados hechos que ocurren a su alrededor refuerzan su misticismo y la aproximan peligrosamente a la delgada línea que separa la realidad de la ficción. La asombrosa voz de Judith, su mirada inocente y carente de prejuicios otorgan al relato una perspectiva fresca y diferente que emociona e invita a la reflexión. La crítica ha dicho...«Una novela intensamente conmovedora, escrita con maestría.»The Sunday Times «La escritura de Grace McCleen es profunda, imaginativa e imponente [...]. Retrata un fascinante microcosmos con generosidad, humor y capacidad para el asombro [...]. Una primera novela maravillosa.»The Independent «Un mundo soñado ofrece un retrato conmovedor y, al mismo tiempo, perturbador de lo que significa la fe.»Entertainment Weekly «Asombrosa, emotiva, profunda y compleja.»The Guardian «Apasionante [...] una indagación sobre la naturaleza de las creencias religiosas y su influencia en el desarrollo psicológico. Un mundo soñado coloca a una niña en esta encrucijada y nuestro corazón la sigue conmovido.»The New York Times

El muñeco de nieve (Harry Hole #7)
by Jo NesboEl muñeco de nieve, séptima entrega de la serie de novela negra noruega protagonizada por el atormentado detective Harry Hole, es un combate cara a cara con el mal absoluto. La primera nevada cae en noviembre este año en Oslo. La mañana siguiente, al despertarse, un niño no encuentra a su madre en casa. Se le hace raro encontrar su bufanda favorita colgando del cuello de un muñeco de nieve que alguien ha hecho en el jardín. El detective Harry Hole empieza a sospechar que hay un psicópata suelto, desde hace demasiado tiempo, cuando descubre que un alarmante número de madres y esposas han desaparecido en circunstancias similares, tras caer la primera nieve. Nunca antes se ha enfrentado Harry, ni ningún otro policía, a un asesino en serie en suelo noruego. Va a verse obligado a seguir las reglas de un juego macabro que lo pueden llevar al límite de la locura. A la vez que disecciona conceptos como la paternidad, la vanidad y la muerte, El muñeco de nieve es un viaje definitivo y destructor al corazón del detective: las heridas que inflige su trabajo en Harry Hole no podrán ser más profundas. Con un sentido drástico del ritmo, una construcción de personajes infalible y un intercambio veloz de tramas, esta novela supuso la consagración internacional definitiva de Jo Nesbø. Críticas:«Una novela implacable. El modo en cómo transformó una bonita estampa infantil en algo terrorífico ha logrado perturbar mi sueño. Todos en mi banda leen ahora a Jo Nesbø.»Patti Smith «El muñeco de nieve es un libro tan insondable como la nieve, tan luminoso y abstracto como los cuartetos finales para cuerda de Beethoven, es una experiencia literaria única y perturbadora.»James Ellroy «Noruega podría muy bien presumir de que Henrik Ibsen, Edvard Munch y el exitoso escritor de thrillers Jo Nesbø sean sus hijos predilectos.»The New York Times «Muy de vez en cuando aparece una novela negra extraordinariamente buena. Jo Nesbø lo ha logrado con El muñeco de nieve.»The Sunday Times

Munster's Case
by Hakan Nesser Laurie ThompsonFor Waldemar Leverkuhn the day could not have begun more auspiciously. He and three of his friends, all retirees, have just won the lottery. It's a modest sum when split four ways--certainly not enough to lift Waldemar out of the plain apartment he shares with his quiet, weary wife--but it's enough for the old men to toast their good luck with a blowout at their favorite bar. The celebration ends, however, with Waldemar drunk, stumbling, belligerent, and eventually dead in his own bed, stabbed twenty-eight times in the chest with a carving knife. Taking charge of the case is Intendent Münster, Chief Inspector Van Veeteren's longtime right-hand man, and his beguiling colleague Ewa Moreno. They seem to have a surefire lead with the disappearance of one of Waldemar's friends on the same night as the murder, but after a cursory look into his whereabouts produces more questions than answers, the investigation suddenly seems to solve itself when Marie-Louise Leverkuhn, Waldemar's wife, confesses to the crime and calmly resigns herself to her fate. The case is, but all accounts, closed. That is, until one of the Leverkuhns' neighbors in the same unassuming block of apartments goes missing and turns up--spectacularly, gruesomely--in pieces around the city. Thrown back into the fog and chasing after wisps of clues that tenuously but inextricably link the murders, Müenster and Moreno take center stage in Håkan Nesser's haunting new addition to his acclaimed series.

The Muralist: A Novel
by B. A. Shapiro“Vibrant and suspenseful . . . Like The Art Forger, this new story takes us into the heart of what it means to be an artist.” —The Washington Post “B. A. Shapiro captivated us in 2012 with her ‘addictive’ novel The Art Forger. Now, she’s back with another thrilling tale from the art world.” —Entertainment Weekly When Alizée Benoit, an American painter working for the Works Progress Administration (WPA), vanishes in New York City in 1940, no one knows what happened to her. Not her Jewish family living in German-occupied France. Not her artistic patron and political compatriot, Eleanor Roosevelt. Not her close-knit group of friends, including Mark Rothko, Jackson Pollock, and Lee Krasner.

Murcheston: The Wolf's Tale
by David HollandShrouded within the dark corners of imagination, the werewolf holds a supreme place in fable and folklore-the nightbeast, stalking its prey under the light of a full moon. Such is the popular conception. But what of the beast himself? In the novel The Wolf's Tale, a werewolf documents his own case of lycanthropy. Amid the gothic backdrop of Victorian London, the author presents three gentlemen and one woman as they share the telling of this tale-the tale of Edgar Lenoir, Duke of Darnley: aristocrat and werewolf.When Lord Darnley learns that Elizabeth is pregnant with Merry's baby, he plans a hunt in the Carpathian Mountains to escape the pain of his unrequited love. Darnely goes alone and returns a changed man . . . a man who will then change Merry's and Elizabeth's lives forever.The centerpiece of the novel is Lord Darnley's journal chronicling his months as a werewolf. He views his condition not with horror, but with a fascination he believes to be thoroughly modern. Unfortunately, he is also narcissistic, ruthless, and ultimately, seduced by his own misguided self-interest to justify as natural and healthy the bestial desires that eventually consume him.At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
