A un mal perro, a un perro que muerde, hay que meterlo en una jaula. O sacrificarlo. Willem Holleeder es…
uno de los criminales más celebres de Europa. Obtuvo cierta notoriedad al secuestrar, en 1983, al presidente de la cervecera Heineken. Durante décadas ha manejado a sus parientes como si fueran un apéndice más de sus negocios mafiosos, llegando a amenazarlos de muerte si se atrevían a traicionarle. A su hermana Astrid, sin embargo, Willem la consideró siempre su confidente. Vive escondida porque tuvo el valor de escribir este libro. Tras observar cómo su hermano se abría paso en el hampa, apenas cumplía ninguna de las condenas que recibía y morían tanto sus socios como quienes osaban denunciarle, Astrid decidió cambiar las tornas. Empezó a colaborar con la fiscalía y a grabar las conversaciones con Willem, para obtener pruebas que permitieran condenarlo definitivamente. Nadie sabe cómo terminará la partida. Judas no es solo una historia de crimen real: es un retrato espectacular sobre las relaciones de familia y el sentido de la traición. La crítica ha dicho...«Un libro arrebatador donde no sobra ningún detalle.»Berliner Zeitung «Un relato real inesperadamente siniestro y cruel que, al estar narrado con solvencia, se convierte en una lectura fabulosa, trufada con el típico humor negro de Amsterdam.»De Telegraaf «Un libro en el que se mezclan la repulsión, el amor y la venganza. Este es el relato real de una familia que ha sido dominada por el crimen.»NRC Handelsblad «Escrita desde un lugar secreto, en protección de testigos, Judas es una historia sobre el engaño, el fraude y, por encima de todo, el coraje. Una denuncia contra los lazos familiares que llegan a estrangular las vidas de muchos.»The Washington Post «Un drama fascinante y conmovedor.»De Volkskrant «Astrid Holleeder es una Sherezade actual. Es muy buena explicando historias para salvar la vida día tras día.»Literaturspiegel «Holleeder es un apellido poco conocido fuera de Holanda. Con este libro, todo va a cambiar.»The New York Times «Un relato autobiográfico espléndido, sensacional, inolvidable.»KirkusBy John Grisham. 2015
La primera obra de no ficción de Grisham es un escalofriante thriller legal, basado en hechos reales. Narra la historia…
de un hombre que creyó haberlo perdido todo... Incluso antes de conocer el infierno. Hubo un tiempo en que Ron Williamson era una joven promesa del béisbol. Cuando los Yankees estaban a punto de ofrecerle la oportunidad de cumplir su sueño, una inesperada lesión puso fin a su carrera. Ron tuvo que renunciar a la Liga Americana y regresar a casa de su madre, en la pequeña y tranquila Ada, en Oklahoma. Abandonado a la autocompasión no podía imaginar que en realidad no conocía el verdadero significado de perderlo todo. En 1982 aparece el cuerpo de Debra Sue Carter, una joven camarera conocida de Ron, brutalmente violada y asesinada. Unas pruebas insustanciales bastan para llevarle al corredor de la muerte. Víctima de un proceso judicial tan torpe como injusto, solo haría falta una prueba de ADN para demostrar su inocencia... Para su desgracia, la ciencia tardaría unos años en estar de su lado. La crítica ha dicho...«Grisham ha creado un thriller legal con el mismo suspense y ritmo vertiginoso que un best seller de ficción.»The Boston Globe «Una investigación meticulosa... Una historia absorbente.»Entretainment Weekly «La prosa reducida a lo esencial y la voz realista de Grisham hacen que sea una lectura verdaderamente tensa.»PeopleBy Mi-Ae Seo. 2020
¿Un monstruo nace o se hace? La novela negra del momento se escribe en Corea. Dos personas han aterrizado en…
la vida de la psicóloga forense Seon-gyeong: un asesino en serie de fama mundial, Lee Byeong-do, que había permanecido en silencio hasta entonces, y la aparentemente inofensiva hija de once años del matrimonio anterior de su marido. Desde la misteriosa muerte de su madre, la niña vivía con sus abuelos, pero estos acaban de morir en un incendio inexplicable. Seon-gyeong se ha propuesto que la niña se sienta como en casa, sin embargo, le cuesta conseguirlo: apenas habla y actúa de forma extraña. De hecho, su comportamiento le recuerda, en parte, al de Lee Byeong-do. Los dos parecen trastornados en extremo y, sin duda, quieren algo deella, pero ¿qué? Seon-gyeong tendrá que averiguar quién es la posible víctima en todo ese asunto antes de que sea demasiado tarde. La crítica ha dicho...«Saludemos a los herederos de los nórdicos: en Corea han reinventado el thriller.»The Guardian «Con fría precisión, Seo nos ofrece un retrato, tan perturbador como fascinante, del asesino en serie de la próxima generación.»Kirkus «Un espeluznante thriller psicológico. Seo va tejiendo una red narrativa cada vez más tensa que culmina en un clímax doblemente impactante. Muestra del talento de la autora es la capacidad que tiene para encontrar vestigios de humanidad en un despiadado asesino. Los fans de la serie de Netflix Mindhunter se sentirán como en casa.»Publishers Weekly «Una lectura impresionante y escalofriante.»Josh Malerman, autor de Bird Box: a ciegasBy Leopoldo Mendivil. 2020

La verdad que descubren, que ha sido escondida durante años a los mexicanos, no sólo destapará las evidentes prácticas de corrupción entre sus funcionarios así como la mano invisible de Estados Unidos en las resoluciones del gobierno, sino también un hecho sorprendente: la existencia de yacimientos ocultos de gran riqueza y una nueva fuente de energía conocida como "el nuevo petróleo" que podría conducir a México hacia la prosperidad, además de reconfigurar las relaciones de poder en todo el mundo.By Tim MacGabhann. 2020
