Dagger al mejor thriller del año. Tras El show de las marionetas, la nueva tormenta se aproxima. Jared Keaton, el chef de las estrellas. Encantador. Carismático. Psicópata...Jared se encuentra cumpliendo cadena perpetua por el brutal asesinato de su hija Elizabeth. Su cuerpo nunca fue hallado y Keaton fue condenado en gran parte por el testimonio del detective Washington Poe. Cuando una joven mujer se presenta a las puertas de una remota comisaría de policía con evidencias irrefutables de que ella es Elizabeth Keaton, Poe se encontrará con el dilema de una investigación que bien podría costarle mucho más que su propia carrera profesional.Con la ayuda de la única persona en la que confía, la brillante pero socialmente compleja Tilly Bradshaw, Poe emprende una carrera contra reloj para responder la única pregunta que importa: ¿Cómo puede una persona estar viva y muerta al mismo tiempo? Y de pronto, Elizabeth desaparece de nuevo, y todas las pistas de la investigación señalan otra vez a Poe.

Par Ernest Hemingway. 2023
A gorgeous new centennial edition of Ernest Hemingway’s landmark short story of returning veteran Nick Adams’s solo fishing trip in…
Michigan’s rugged Upper Peninsula, illustrated with specially commissioned artwork by master engraver Chris Wormell and featuring a revelatory foreword by John N. Maclean."The finest story of the outdoors in American literature." —Sports IllustratedA century since its publication in the collection In Our Time, “Big Two-Hearted River” has helped shape language and literature in America and across the globe, and its magnetic pull continues to draw readers, writers, and critics. The story is the best early example of Ernest Hemingway’s now-familiar writing style: short sentences, punchy nouns and verbs, few adjectives and adverbs, and a seductive cadence. Easy to imitate, difficult to match. The subject matter of the story has inspired generations of writers to believe that fly fishing can be literature. More than any of his stories, it depends on his ‘iceberg theory’ of literature, the notion that leaving essential parts of a story unsaid, the underwater portion of the iceberg, adds to its power. Taken in context with his other work, it marks Hemingway’s passage from boyish writer to accomplished author: nothing big came before it, novels and stories poured out after it. —from the foreword by John N. MacleanThe Food of the Gods (Hesperus Classics)

Published in 1904, this forgotten classic is sci-fi and dystopia at its best, written by the creator and master of…
the genreFollowing extensive research in the field of "growth," Mr. Bensington and Professor Redwood light upon a new mysterious element, a food that causes greatly accelerated development. Initially christening their discovery "The Food of the Gods," the two scientists are overwhelmed by the possible ramifications of their creation. Needing room for experiments, Mr. Besington chooses a farm that offers him the chance to test on chickens, which duly grow monstrous, six or seven times their usual size. With the farmer, Mr. Skinner, failing to contain the spread of the Food, chaos soon reigns as reports come in of local encounters with monstrous wasps, earwigs, and rats. The chickens escape, leaving carnage in their wake. The Skinners and Redwoods have both been feeding their children the compound illicitly—their eventual offspring will constitute a new age of giants. Public opinion rapidly turns against the scientists and society rebels against the world's new flora and fauna. Daily life has changed shockingly and now politicians are involved, trying to stamp out the Food of the Gods and the giant race. Comic and at times surprisingly touching and tragic, Wells' story is a cautionary tale warning against the rampant advances of science but also of the dangers of greed, political infighting, and shameless vote-seeking.Pollyanna
Par Eleanor H. Porter, Anne Fine. 2014
One of the all-time classics of children's literature, a feel-good book full of enthusiasm and exuberance, and a perfect family…
read"There is something about everything that you can be glad about, if you keep hunting long enough to find it."When Pollyanna Whittier's father dies she is sent to live with her Aunt Polly in Vermont. A clash of personalities ensues as Pollyanna's sunny disposition sits ill with her aunt's need for quiet, her passion for shutting windows, and her obsession with quietly shut doors. The key to Pollyanna's happiness is The Glad Game—originally invented to deal with disappointing missionary boxes—and is applied to all parts of life. No matter how dark the situation, it is always possible to find something to be glad about. Any attempts to discipline the child fail helplessly in the face of The Glad Game. A bread and milk supper in the kitchen is greeted with rapture; a puritan attic bedroom with sparse furnishing is valued for its rapturous views. As Pollyanna becomes acquainted with other inhabitants of the town, the cantankerous residents fall victim to her charms. However, the arrival of a motor car in town heralds a tragic change which not even Pollyanna looks likely to be able to overcome. This timeless classic has spawned many spin-off novels and films.The Children of the New Forest

A classic tale of historical adventure to be enjoyed by children and adults alike, set against the turbulent background of…
the English Civil War, as well as a charming coming-of-age storyIt was in the month of November in this year that King Charles, accompanied by Sir John Berkely, Ashburnham, and Legg, made his escape from Hampton Court, and rode as fast as the horses could carry them toward that part of Hampshire which led to the New Forest . . . It is 1647. Charles I has been defeated in the civil war, but has escaped captivity and is making for France. Parliamentary soldiers searching the New Forest decide to burn the house of Colonel Beverly, a royalist officer killed at the Battle of Naseby. His four children are rescued by their father's gamekeeper, Jacob, who takes them in. The children gradually shed their aristocratic sensibilities and adapt to the simple ways of the forest, working Jacob's farmstead and befriending other inhabitants of the woodland. But when Charles II raises an army and the specter of war returns to haunt the Beverly children, they realize they cannot hide from their true identity.The Coral Island: A Tale Of The Pacific Ocean
Par R. M. Ballantyne, John Boyne. 2013
Adventure and peril abound in a classic tale of shipwreck and survivalRalph, Jack, and Peterkin find themselves the sole survivors…
of a shipwreck on a deserted coral island in the South Pacific. Although fate has led them to temporary safety, the three marooned boys are forced to carve out a life for themselves from what nature provides. They rapidly learn which fruit to eat, which animals to hunt, and which lagoons are best for bathing. Resourceful as they are, their desert island idyll is often disturbed and they face numerous terrifying threats—pirates, sharks, cannibalism, and local tribes among them. Amid all the chaos, the trio still face the riddle of how to engineer their rescue from their tropical exile. Following in Robinson Crusoe's footsteps, and yet with added adventure, Ballantyne's writing is a classic adored by previous generations of children and deserves to be discovered all over again by a modern audience.Desperate Games

by science and brutality gone mad in this long-neglected, dystopian sci-fi classic, now in a new translationDespairing at the state of world degeneration, a group of the world's most renowned intellectuals form the new Scientific World Government, aiming to put the world to rights. Elected into power, they quickly start making changes for the better, eliminating world hunger and cancer, encouraging scientific thought, and banning frivolous entertainment. But while congratulating themselves on a job well done, they fail to notice that actually, people are not happy. The suicide rate has sky-rocketed and, strangely, it turns out the public wants a little risk and conflict in their lives. So to cater to the masses, the Department of Psychology forms a plan: they will stage an entertainment show the likes of which the world has never seen before. It starts with gladiatorial style battles, bloodthirsty and brutal, where the victors become celebrities of unseen proportions, and quickly escalates into entire historical battle re-enactments involving chemical warfare and mass destruction. The Scientific World Government has unleashed a monster. What has the world let itself in for?The Lost Prince
Par Frances Hodgson Burnett, Matt Haig. 2014
From the author of A Little Princess and The Secret Garden comes a masterful adventure that will capture the imagination:…
a tale of destiny, revolution, family and friendshipTwelve-year-old Marco and his father, Stefan, are exiled citizens of the impoverished Eastern European nation of Samavia. They live in London, where Stefan often receives mysterious visitors and where Marco befriends a street urchin known only as Rat. Stefan decides to send the pair on a secret mission in Europe, carrying a coded message to fellow Samavian patriots across the continent. On their arrival in Europe, it quickly becomes clear that Marco and Rat might not know the whole story; everywhere they go, Samavian exiles show Marco particular attention, but it is not until their return to London that the magnitude of the secret hidden within him becomes clear. Burnett's evocation of early 20th-century Europe is masterful, and her imaginative tale of political intrigue and family destiny will appeal to readers of all ages.A Tale of Two Families
Par Dodie Smith. 1970
From the author of I Capture the Castle comes a delightful, funny tale of complicated sibling relationships, friendship, and forbidden…
love, set in 1970s EnglandSuspecting her husband, George, of dalliances in the city, May decides it is high time the family moved to the country. Determined to create the perfect home there, she finds an idyllic country house set in a lilac grove and sets about furnishing it properly and cooking enormous meals. She even manages to convince her less well-off sister, June, to move into a cozy cottage on the grounds with her husband Robert. This new set-up is very much a family affair as June's husband Robert just happens to be George's brother: the two sisters are married to two brothers. At first both families seem to be settling in well, sharing delicious meals and having fun times together. Their grown-up children, Hugh and Corinna, visit from London and there even seems to be a hint of romance in the air for them, while the surviving grandparents from both sides of the family move into the big house and forge new friendships. But the arrival of a cantankerous great aunt will reveal the cracks in the family's tangled relationships and will even threaten to unveil the greatest secret of all—while May thought moving George to the country would put a stop to his affairs, he has begun to fall in love with his sister-in-law, June. The death of a beloved character will, however, turn the tables again and lead to the ultimate, happy, denouement.The Story of the Treasure Seekers: Being The Adventures Of The Bastable Children In Search Of A Fortune (classic Reprint)

she makes to the lives of those around her Set in Riverboro, Maine, this quintessentially American story is a remarkable depiction of rural life in the United States at the turn of the 20th century. We first meet Rebecca when she is on her way to live with her spinster aunts, Miranda and Jane, due to her family's financial straits. She has left behind her beloved home she grew up in, Sunnybrook Farm, her widowed mother, and six siblings. A cheerful and imaginative little girl, Rebecca soon forms a close bond with her Aunt Jane. Her natural wit and charm also endear Rebecca to the people of the village, who are struck by her positivity. However there remains a shadow over Rebecca's happiness: Aunt Miranda is baffled by her niece's vivid imagination, and childish wonder at all she sees. But when her mother falls ill and Rebecca is forced to look after her old farmstead home as well as her ailing mother, it may just be that Miranda has grown fond of her niece after all.The Prince and the Pauper

Mark TwainLondon, 1547. Two boys meet by chance and strike up a conversation at the gates of a palace. Tom Canty is a poor young boy with few prospects in life; his new friend happens to be Prince Edward VI, the Prince of Wales. The prince and the pauper could not be more different from one another, except for the small fact that they look identical. When Tom admires the prince's fine garments, he and Prince Edward decide on the spur of the moment to swap clothes. But with cruel irony the prince is mistaken for a poor beggar in Tom's rags and kicked out of his own palace while Tom is taken to be the prince by everyone he meets. Suddenly the prince and the pauper have swapped not only clothes but also their homes, families, lives, and their very identities. While the boys are eager to learn about life in someone else's shoes, they ultimately want to return to their own homes and families. But this proves to be a tall order when nobody believes the prince's claims that he is really a prince despite being clothed in rags. This gripping tale of mistaken identity sees Mark Twain venturing into historical fiction for children while displaying his typical flair for witty dialogue and incisive satire.Tales of the Islanders (Hesperus Classics)

tale of adventure at sea, this is the story of the naïve young Humphrey van Weyden, whose ship is wrecked in a terrible storm. He is rescued by the mysterious Captain Wolf Larsen of the ship Ghost.

TIMES* *ENTRE LAS DIEZ MEJORES NOVELAS DEL AÑO PARA: PEOPLE, THE TONIGHT SHOW, THE WASHINGTON POST, THE NEW YORK POST, AMAZON, ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY, OPRAH ENTRE MUCHOS OTROS*Cuando un joven escritor muere antes de completar su primera novela, su maestro, un novelista fracasado, decide continuar con la trama. El libro resultante es un éxito fenomenal. Pero, ¿y si alguien más lo sabe? Y si el impostor no puede averiguar con quién está lidiando, corre el riesgo de algo mucho peor que la pérdida de su carrera.Jacob Finch Bonner fue un joven y prometedor escritor cuya primera novela cosechó un éxito muy respetable. Hoy, él está enseñando en un programa de escritura de tercera categoría y lucha por mantener la poca dignidad que le queda; no ha escrito, y mucho menos publicado nada decente en años. Cuando Evan Parker, su alumno más arrogante, le dice a Jake que no necesita de su ayuda para continuar con su novela porque considera que la trama de su libro en progreso es magnífica, Jake lo tacha como el típico narcisista aficionado. Pero entonces... escucha la trama. Jake regresa a la trayectoria descendente de su propia carrera y se prepara para la publicación de la primera novela de Evan Parker: pero eso nunca sucede. Jake descubre que su antiguo alumno ha muerto, presumiblemente sin haber completado su libro, y hace lo que cualquier escritor que se precie haría con una historia como esa: una historia que es absolutamente necesario contar. En unos pocos años, todas las predicciones de Evan Parker se han hecho realidad, pero Jake es el autor que disfruta del éxito. Es rico, famoso, elogiado y leído en todo el mundo. Pero en el apogeo de su gloriosa nueva vida, recibe un correo electrónico, la primera amenaza de una aterradora campaña anónima: eres un ladrón, dice el correo.Mientras Jake lucha por entender a su antagonista y ocultar la verdad a sus lectores y editores, comienza a aprender más sobre su difunto alumno, y lo que descubre le asombra y aterroriza. ¿Quién era Evan Parker y cómo se le ocurrió la idea de su «apuesta segura» de una novela? ¿Cuál es la verdadera historia detrás de la trama y quién se la robó a quién? La crítica internacional ha señalado esta novela como uno de los grandes libros del año:«La trama está tan bien elaborada y es tan convincente que es casi imposible de dejar de lado. Inteligente y escalofriante, te atrapa desde el primer capítulo y no te deja ir hasta su sorprendente e impresionante final.»Greer Hendricks y Sarah Pekkanen «Desde sus primeras páginas esta novela te atrapa en una rica maraña de vanidades literarias, traición y fraude. Psicológicamente agudo y asombrosamente lleno de suspense, te encontrarás corriendo hacia un final asombroso y totalmente merecido.»Megan Abbott «La trama de La trama (el mejor thriller del año), es demasiado buena para revelarla.»The Washington Post «Diabólicamente inteligente, y aquí está el giro definitivo: que cualquier novela sobre la vida de un escritor (trabajo solitario y ansioso) podría ser tan tremendamente vertiginosa y entretenida.»People«Un libro de lectura imparable. Un thriller sobre la literatura.» Santiago Roncagliolo «Describe de maravilla el mundo de los escritores y sus ansias y desilusiones.»Juan Carlos Galindo, El País «Un libro de lectura imparable. Un thriller sobre la literatura.»Santiago RoncaglioloTierra de invierno

por los creadores de The bridge. Un delito menor durante uno de sus servicios ha enviado al superintendente de la policía de Copenhague Martin Juncker a una estancia forzada en la pequeña ciudad provincial de Sandsted. Junto con un aprendiz de policía y un joven sargento de policía, se le encarga la tarea de enfrentar los desafíos de un centro de asilo cercano, al mismo tiempo que tiene que cuidar a su anciano padre demente, con el que siempre ha tenido una relación complicada. Cuando una atentado terrorista con bomba golpea un mercado navideño en el centro de Copenhague, y Juncker no puede participar en la investigación, se siente completamente fuera de combate. Su ex pareja Signe Kristiansen no. Ella comienza a buscar a los perpetradores, mientras lucha con el temor de que su hermana esté entre los muertos. La investigación termina muy rápidamente en un callejón sin salida. Sin embargo, Signe recibe un consejo que lleva la investigación a un lugar que no había imaginado ni en sus fantasías más salvajes. Mientras tanto, para gran asombro de Juncker, un caso de asesinato aterriza en su escritorio: un hombre ha sido asesinado, golpeado con una tubería de metal, y su esposa ha desaparecido. Aparentemente, el asesinato parece un asalto violento común, pero cuando descubren que la víctima tenía conexiones con grupos neonazis, el caso adquiere una dimensión distinta. La crítica ha dicho...«El thriller danés más original que he leído en años.
