Alicia Giménez Bartlett
Mi querido asesino en serie / My Dear Serial Killer
A middle-aged woman is found dead in her own house. This is undoubtedly a murder, but a very special one: the woman has suffered a ferocious attack and her face has been slashed. On her corpse, a spiteful love letter.
Petra Delicado, Fermín Garzón and inspector Roberto Fraile, from the regional police, share the investigation of the case. It will not be the last female victim with identical criminal characteristics. Are the two police forces facing an unusual serial killer? Everything seems to indicate so.
Alicia Giménez Bartlett has come back with a new Petra Delicado case.

Tres assaigs
Cabré's reflections on reading, writing, music and art gathered in a single volume.

From the knowledge of someone who has been giving answers and solutions to the creative process for decades, Cabré has written three testimonial and theoretical texts that are a treasure for any lover of literature and art. They are texts written with the complicity of those who recognize themselves, above all, as a reader, as a listener, as a spectator.
