Archange
Harris Robert

Archange raconte l'histoire de quatre jours de la vie de Fluke Kelso, ancien professeur d'histoire à Oxford, venu assister à Moscou à une conférence sur les archives soviétiques récemment ouvertes.

Une nuit, Kelso reçoit à son hôtel la visite d'un ancien officier du NKVD, ancien garde du corps de Beria, chef de la police secrète. L'homme prétend avoir été dans la datcha de Staline la nuit où celui-ci eut son attaque fatale, et avoir aidé Beria à subtiliser les documents secrets du dictateur, en particulier un carnet.

Kelso décide de consacrer sa dernière matinée à Moscou à vérifier les dires de cet homme. Mais ce qui débute comme une simple enquête à la bibliothèque Lénine se transforme très vite en une chasse à l'homme meurtrière jusqu'à Archangelsk au nord de la Russie, jusqu'aux vastes forêts au bord de la mer Blanche, où l'ultime, terrible secret de Joseph Staline est resté caché depuis près d'un demi-siècle.

Slater Ian

Now they would do the same to the Americans — unless the colorful and highly unorthodox U.S. General Feeman could devise a spectacular breakout…

Ardores De Agosto
Camilleri Andrea

Un calor asfixiante arrasa Sicilia como una llamarada; durante el día el aire se vuelve irrespirable, las piedras queman y ni siquiera un baño en el mar ofrece algo más que alivio momentáneo. Con la ciudad sumida en un letargo incandescente, Salvo aguarda la llegada de Livia, que viene con unos amigos a pasar las vacaciones en una solitaria casita frente a la playa. Pero el idílico plan se tuerce cuando, oculto en los sótanos de la casa, aparece un baúl con un cadáver dentro.

El macabro hallazgo desata los instintos investigadores del comisario, que muy pronto se ve envuelto en una maraña criminal de múltiples facetas que involucra a políticos, banqueros y empresarios, todos bajo la omnipresente tutela de la mafia. Y como si la canícula no fuera suficiente para causar estragos en el comportamiento de los personajes, la presencia casi mágica de una bellísima veinteañera hace flaquear la proverbial lucidez del propio Montalbano, hasta el punto de tentarlo a dar ese paso trascendental que había evitado hasta el momento.

Décima aventura de Salvo Montalbano, en la que el inimitable comisario sigue haciendo gala de ese vitalismo socarrón y melancólico mientras se asoma a los abismos más profundos del ánima humana.

Are You Afraid Of The Dark
Sheldon Sidney
Arena en los zapatos
Sasturain Juan

Arena en los zapatos, novela ejemplar en la que Etchenike advierte algunos de los beneficios del caos o, para decirlo con moderación, del desorden, es una novela asombrosa. Bajo el peso y el paso del “veterano”, la gran ciudad esta vez se disuelve, se retira hacia confines de mar, una playa sola al filo del otoño donde todo parece convertirse en otra cosa manipulada por el tiempo. Entre otras, en una ficción que juega con los tableros de la memoria y la sospecha simultáneamente. Esto, claro, juega a favor del hombre que cada día debe luchar a puño limpio con el desánimo para restablecer un sistema de prioridades que el narrador nunca pierde de vista. Publicada por primera vez a fines de los ochenta, Arena en los zapatos ha adquirido un nuevo sabor, mejorado con los años, como un buen vino. A su genial y demorada intriga, a su ritmo exacto, debe agregársele la perspectiva y el tamaño que el personaje de Sasturain tomó: leyenda invulnerable, genio y figura de un argentino de bien obligado generalmente a mantenerse al margen de la ley. Una obra maestra.

Armageddon (Nuclear Winter[2])
Akart Bobby

For decades, Nuclear Armageddon hanged over us like a mighty sword.

Some said it would be the war to end all wars.

They were wrong. The real battle against extinction was just beginning.

This is how the world ends. Not with a bang, but with many nuclear bombs detonated around the planet. It was no longer a topic of conversation around the dinner table as in years past.

Nobody was prepared, including the world’s governments. Yet the threat was always real and the devastation was predictable.

The damage was incalculable. Millions died at the points of impact. Nuclear Winter spread across the globe. A rapidly cooling climate shocked humanity and all living things… to their death.

This is more than the story of nuclear conflict. It’s about the devastating effects wrought by Nuclear Winter. Our possible future is seen through the eyes of the Albright family whose roots stretch back to the early settlement of the Florida Keys.

While they fight for survival, they trek across a rapidly deteriorating landscape wrought with danger from both the elements and their fellow man.

It was not our fight, but it became our problem.

Bobby Akart has delivered intense, up-all-night thrillers that have you whispering just one more chapter until the end.
