La primera estrella de la noche (Chicago stars series #08)
Par Susan Elizabeth Phillips. 2017
"Piper Dove is a woman with a dream-to become the best detective in the city of Chicago. First job? Trail…
former Chicago Stars quarterback, Cooper Graham. Problem? Graham's spotted her, and he's not happy. Which is why a good detective needs to think on her feet. "The fact is...I'm your stalker. Not full-out barmy. Just...mildly unhinged." Piper soon finds herself working for Graham himself, although not as the bodyguard he refuses to admit he so desperately needs. Instead, he's hired her to keep an eye on the employees at his exclusive new nightclub. But Coop's life might be in danger, and Piper's determined to protect him, whether he wants it or not. (Hint: Not!) If only she weren't also dealing with a bevy of Middle Eastern princesses, a Pakistani servant girl yearning for freedom, a teenager who just wants to fit in, and an elderly neighbor demanding Piper find her very dead husband. And then there's Cooper Graham himself, a legendary sports hero who always gets what he wants-even if what he wants is a feisty detective hell bent on proving she's as tough as he is." -- GoodreadsRespira (Bad Ash #02)

Par Martín Casariego. 2015
"Ismael remembers the time when, at thirteen years old, his parents hired Rai, a boy five years older than him,…
to tutor him. After an unproductive first session, they made a pact: the student would study on his own and the teacher would talk to him about books, movies, music, life.... Also about Samuel, a young man who wrote to schedule a meeting with his ex-girlfriend, with the threat that if she did not show up he would commit suicide. With this starting point, Martín Casariego has written a novel of initiation, a novel about the passage from adolescence to maturity; about the family and the new forms of relationships between young people; about the intensity of such a decisive stage in life; about the weight of existence and how to alleviate it. A story marked by shadows, doubts and secrets, in which the white whale the narrator has been running from will end up showing up unexpectedly years later, changing everything and prompting him to rethink what happened." -- Translation provided by NLSBienvenidos a Villapeste (Pandilla basura #01)

Par Alvaro Enrigue. 2012
"'It's not that I've chosen to be second place, I'm just a natural. Besides, I've believed in the goodness of…
second place for many years.' So begins The Hero's Friend, first published in 1998 and remastered for this edition. This story by Álvaro Enrigue dusts off the naivety and vanity of childhood: Ponchito, a child like any other, played at being the hero. A memorable literary exercise. A sobering experience. Enrigue puts himself at the feet of his protagonist and relives the dialogues of two middle school kids who in their relentless fight against crime are forced to face the ultimate and most unexpected consequences." -- Translation provided by NLSMaldad
