Balance Of Power (Kerry Kilcannon Ser. #3)
Par Richard North Patterson. 2003
An epic story that moves with force, passion, and authority, Balance of Power begins when President Kerry Kilcannon and television…
journalist Lara Costello at last decide to marry. But the momentous occasion is followed by an unspeakable tragedy—a massacre of innocents by gunfire—that ignites a high-stakes game of politics and legal maneuvering in the Senate, the courtroom, and across the country, which the charismatic but untested young President is determined to win at any cost. But in the incendiary clash over gun violence and gun rights, the cost to both Kilcannons may be even higher than he imagined.Un beso en Lovelight

UNA COMEDIA ROMÁNTICA NAVIDEÑA, RECONFORTANTE Y DIVERTIDA, QUE TRANSPORTARÁ A LAS LECTORAS AL ENCANTO DE UN PUEBLO PEQUEÑO EN LA…
ÉPOCA MÁS MÁGICA DEL AÑO. Para sacar a Lovelight Farms de la ruina, Stella Bloom tendrá que aliarse con su mejor amigo, Luke Peters, y fingir que tienen una relación para ganar un premio que salve su negocio. Hay muchos motivos por los que Lovelight Farms ya no es el paraíso invernal con el que Stella Bloom soñaba: los abetos marchitos, el establo de Papá Noel conquistado por mapaches, mercancías extraviadas, una deuda tremenda... Para intentar salvarlo, Stella se presenta a un concurso. Pero hay un problema: intentando pintar Lovelight como un destino para vacaciones en pareja, Stella dijo que lo llevaba con su novio. Y no tiene. A quien sí tiene es a Luke Peters, su mejor amigo, que de repente se ve con un negocio a su nombre y, de paso, con una relación falsa. No obstante, fingir que está enamorado de Stella le resulta fácil, y puede que el destino le haya hecho el mejor regalo de Navidad posible...

Par Nicolas Freeling. 2022
From an Edgar Award–winning British crime novelist, this unsettling homicide investigation features the unorthodox French detective Henri Castang.On a sultry…
summer night in a French provincial city, Insp. Henri Castang is summoned from his office at the Police Judiciaire to the site of a triple murder. The killer? A husband who came home unexpectedly to discover his wife and daughter in bed with another man. A crime of passion? Perhaps. Except the murderer in question, wealthy financier Gilbert La Touche, is cool and remote. His confession is as factual and bloodless as the crime is violent and deeply disturbing. As a detective, Castang must play by the rules to protect himself. But for an unconventional cop like Castang, that is virtually impossible. After all, there’s more to murder than a few corpses and a killer, and Castang will follow every twist until he gets to the heart of the evil at hand.Praise for Nicolas Freeling“Nicolas Freeling . . . liberated the detective story from page-turning puzzler into a critique of society and an investigation of character.” —The Daily Telegraph“Freeling rewards with his oblique, subtly comic style.” —Publishers WeeklyDesire Untamed: A Feral Warriors Novel (Feral Warriors #1)
