Montaro Caine: A Novel
by Sidney PoitierA baby is born with a coin in her hand. An orphan crafts a mysterious wooden object. The CEO of a large corporation finds himself under extraordinary pressure at work and at home. And on a remote hilltop on a Caribbean island, a medicine man seems to understand the meaning of all these events and to hold the key to the future. Montaro Caine, CEO of the Fitzer Corporation, is losing control of the company he built just as his teenage daughter is experiencing her own difficulties. At this moment of crisis, a man and woman appear at his office with a coin of unknown provenance, composed of a metal unknown on Earth. Montaro immediately recognizes it as the companion of a coin he analyzed as a graduate student working in a lab at MIT, which was later returned to its unidentified owner. The coin's appearance draws the attention of scientists, collectors, financiers, and thieves, all of whom vie to get their hands on it, and Montaro himself hopes that the discovery of the coin will save his company. But the value of the coin lies not in its monetary worth but in its hold on the people who come into contact with it. These include the young woman who is not aware of the object that was found in her hand at birth; an old man who, as a boy, crafted a wooden compact as a gift for a young Montaro Caine; and the elusive healer Matthew Perch, who, from his hut on a small Caribbean island, knows precisely why these people have been brought together and what wisdom the coin imparts. In his first novel, the beloved actor and director Sidney Poitier takes us on a wild and unexpected adventure--from New York to Europe to the Caribbean and beyond. The novel offers Poitier's heartfelt message about the potential each of us has within ourselves, and about being open to the possibility that there are mysteries in the universe, and here on Earth, far greater than we can imagine. An enthralling journey into the magic of existence, Montaro Caine is a radiant debut from an American legend.Praise for Montaro Caine "[A] captivating blend of corporate intrigue and science fiction . . . a thought-provoking tale of caution and hope that is as elegant and riveting as the legendary actor and director himself."--Booklist "Surprisingly intricate . . . sure to please his many fans."--Publishers Weekly"Elegantly written and keenly observed . . . a Little Prince for grown-ups."--Kirkus ReviewsFrom the Hardcover edition.

The Montefeltro Conspiracy: A Renaissance Mystery Decoded
by Marcello SimonettaSimonetta has a doctorate in Renaissance studies from Yale. He has spent much of his academic life on the work of his distant ancestor Cicco Simonetti. Using Cicco's writings, he has posited a new theory on the 1478 murder attempt on the Medici brothers, Lorenzo and Giuliano. Lorenzo survived and the assassins were caught and hanged. It was known that the rival Pazzi family was behind the attack. Simonetta has found new information in a coded letter that implicates Pope Sixtus IV in the plot. He notes that the academic community showed little interest in his findings but that the media was fascinated. Hence, he has written this book for a general audience. The writing is fluid and the story compelling. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

Montevideo Noir
by Hugo BurelMontevideo noir retrata los tempranos 60 para ambientar una historia de la que emana una negrura densa y para muchos todavía invisible. ¿Keller es un canalla o un hombre víctima de las circunstancias? Quizá usted pueda juzgarlo una vez que lea la novela. Montevideo, abril de 1964: la ciudad apacible pronto va a ingresar en un tiempo de violencia política. El país es gobernado por el Colegiado y la palabra crisis aparece con insistencia en las noticias. No obstante, la convivencia social discurre en la engañosa calma que precede a las tormentas. Ese otoño, un hombre viudo de mediana edad llamado Keller vende la casa familiar y alquila un modesto apartamento en el barrio Parque Rodó después de que su hijo emigra a Australia. Con la mudanza, Keller accede a una nueva vida de hombre solitario que quiere dejar atrás el pasado. A partir de la lectura fortuita de Asesino a sueldo, una ignota novela policial que descubre en su biblioteca, conocerá los pliegues más sombríos de su alma. Obsesionado por Beatriz, su joven vecina, Keller se entrega al juego que el siniestro Murray Sullivan, protagonista de la novela, parece enseñarle página tras página. Ese aprendizaje y su amor imposible por Beatriz empujan a Keller a trasponer límites que nunca soñó cruzar. Así, el juego intertextual entre lo que lee y lo que vive ambienta una trama de crímenes que no da respiro al lector. Montevideo noir reafirma a Hugo Burel en el género de la novela negra con los solventes recursos narrativos que ya había desplegado en El corredor nocturno (Alfaguara, 2005), El desfile salvaje (Alfaguara, 2007) y su reciente y premiada El caso Bonapelch (Alfaguara, 2014). Esta vez indaga en la mente alienada de alguien que deambulará por la Montevideo de hace medio siglo en busca de una nueva identidad. El casino del Parque Hotel, la tienda La Ópera, la confitería La Alhambra y el emblemático café Sorocabana de la plaza Cagancha son algunos de los escenarios en donde Keller nos revelará su mundo inquietante, en el que la liberación y la catarsis necesitarán de un acto compulsivo y absoluto para manifestarse.
