Nine students. Three bloodsports. One deadly weekend.

It is the autumn term and Greer MacDonald is struggling to settle into the sixth form at the exclusive St. Aidan the Great boarding school, known to its privileged pupils as S.T.A.G.S. Just when she despairs of making friends Greer receives a mysterious invitation with three words embossed upon on it: huntin' shootin' fishin'. When Greer learns that the invitation is to spend the half term weekend at the country manor of Henry de Warlencourt, the most popular and wealthy boy at S.T.A.G.S., she is as surprised as she is flattered.

But when Greer joins the other chosen few at the ancient and sprawling Longcross Hall, she realises that Henry's parents are not at home; the only adults present are a cohort of eerily compliant servants. The students are at the mercy of their capricious host, and, over the next three days, as the three bloodsports - hunting, shooting and fishing - become increasingly dark and twisted, Greer comes to the horrifying realisation that those being hunted are not wild game, but the very misfits Henry has brought with him from school...

Одна история рассказанная по-разному. События в Зоне могут измениться в любой момент. Все то, что писалось два года назад, сейчас имеет место быть в современном мире.

Un joven periodista cae al vacío desde el ático de su casa de Madrid en pleno Domingo de Ramos. Todo parece accidental hasta que el comisario Luis Bernal empieza a sospechar si la víctima cayó o fue empujada.El comisario Bernal entra en una peligrosa espiral cuando descubre que el periodista tenía una información altamente delicada para el difícil equilibrio político que se vive en esos momentos en la España posfranquista. Pese a las sempiternas presiones de sus superiores, Bernal decide aclarar el asunto, en realidad un doble crimen, aun a riesgo de su vida, y decide hacerlo antes del Sábado de Gloria (antes de que acabe la histórica Semana Santa de 1977, llena de tensión política por la legalización del PCE y las primeras elecciones generales), para evitar una nostálgica y esperpéntica Resurrección. Con esta novela David Serafín recibió de manos de la crítica inglesa el John Creasey Memorial Award de 1979, por la creación de un clásico policíaco. Hoy, Sábado de Gloria es un fascinante retrato de la transición política española.«Las novelas policíacas del célebre hispanista Ian Michael (a.k.a. David Serafín), con su mezcla de política y costumbrismo, nos presentan una faz nada acostumbrada de ese tiempo que llamamos transición… Lo más relevante de las novelas policíacas del comisario Bernal tal vez sea intangible, porque aunque resulten abrumadores los detalles, lo insustituible es el clima político que se nos dibuja. En el final de una dictadura todos los crímenes son políticos, y en los tiempos de transición a la débil democracia la política lo impregna todo… Por eso el instinto de sabueso de nuestro comisario lo lleva a descubrir tramas golpistas, ruido de sables, involución, terrorismo y atentados antidemocráticos en cualquier aparente “suceso”.La realidad pareció imitar algunas de las tramas de Serafín… Ni Vázquez Montalbán se atrevió a tanto…» Antonio Molina Flores (Del prólogo a esta edición.)

Holy communion spells death for Fr. Miguel Flores, a popular Catholic priest in New York City's Spanish Harlem, after he swallows wine laced with cyanide during a funeral in bestseller Robb's unusually introspective 27th crime thriller to feature Lt. Eve Dallas (after Strangers in Death). The ensuing homicide investigation suggests that Flores could actually be Lino Martinez, a former member of a disbanded gang, the Soldados, suspected of two bombings before he disappeared. The death by cyanide of another religious figure, Jimmy Jay Jenkins, founder of the Church of Eternal Light, complicates matters. Are the two murders connected? Sussing out the answer to that question involves some serious digging. Dallas 's husband, Roarke, and fun sidekick, Det. Delia Peabody, lend support. Robb offers a multilayered solution to several crimes that serves as yet another reminder that wolves sometimes hide in sheep's (or priest's) clothing, but justice, like faith, has no expiration date.
