[Spanish] - No llores por un beso

"La extraordinaria nueva novela de Mary Higgins Clark. Vuelve la reina del suspense. La periodista Gina Kane recibe un correo electrónico de una tal «CRyan» describiendo la «terrible experiencia» que vivió mientras trabajaba en la famosa cadena de noticias REL News. «Y no me pasó solo a mí», afirma. Gina intenta ponerse en contacto con Ryan, pero, cuando esta no responde a sus mensajes, descubre que la joven ha muerto en un trágico (y extraño) accidente. Michael Carter, un abogado que trabaja para REL News, se encuentra en una situación muy incómoda: varias empleadas han sufrido acoso sexual por parte del presentador estrella de la cadena, y ahora Carter tiene que comprar su silencio. Es una estrategia arriesgada, pero, si juega bien sus cartas, podría acabar haciéndose rico. Con la fecha de salida a Bolsa de la empresa cada vez más cerca, los intentos de Carter de impedir que el escándalo se haga público son solo comparables a la férrea determinación de Gina Kane de conseguir que todo salga a la luz. Sin embargo, tras la aparición de nuevas víctimas, no tardará en darse cuenta de que alguien está dispuesto a casi cualquier cosa para mantener la verdad en las sombras... La crítica ha dicho... «Mary Higgins Clark siempre sabe cómo asustarnos y mantenernos intrigados.» The New York Times «La reina de la alta tensión.» The New Yorker «Mary Higgins Clark juega con la historia como la maestra que es. Sin defectos.» Daily Mirror «Puede que los asesinatos y el caos sean el hilo conductor de sus novelas, pero en el corazón de cada una de ellas siempre hay un personaje que recuerda a la autora: una heroína que torna las dificultades a su favor y mantiene a los lectores al borde de sus sillas.» Sunday Morning"

Ninguno de los invitados a la fiesta que dio, aprovechando la ausencia de sus padres, ha visto absolutamente nada.

Se trata de una comunidad en la que todo el mundo se conoce y conocía a Kerry muy bien: su ex, sus amigos, sus profesores, sus vecinos... e incluso su asesino. Mientras la policía sigue investigando, aparentemente dando vueltas en círculos, la familia y los amigos de la víctima esperan a que se haga justicia. Todos salvo la hermana mayor de Kerry, que decide tomar cartas en el asunto y ayudar a los investigadores. Pero lo que la intrépida Aline no sabe es que resolver el asesinato de su hermana pondrá su propia vida en peligro...

But when Ryan goes silent, Gina is shocked to discover the young woman has died tragically in a Jet Ski accident while on holiday.

It Occurs to Me That I Am America: New Stories and Art

"A provocative, unprecedented anthology featuring original short stories on what it means to be an American from thirty bestselling and award-winning authors with an introduction by Pulitzer Prize–winning author Viet Thanh Nguyen: "This chorus of brilliant voices articulating the shape and texture of contemporary America makes for necessary reading" (Lauren Groff, author of Fates and Furies). When Donald Trump claimed victory in the November 2016 election, the US literary and art world erupted in indignation. Many of America's preeminent writers and artists are stridently opposed to the administration's agenda and executive orders—and they're not about to go gentle into that good night. In this "masterful literary achievement" (Kurt Eichenwald, author of Conspiracy of Fools), more than thirty of the most acclaimed writers at work today consider the fundamental ideals of a free, just, and compassionate democracy through fiction in an anthology that "promises to be both a powerful tool in the fight to uphold our values and a tribute to the remarkable voices behind it" (Anthony D. Romero, executive director of the ACLU). With an introduction by Pulitzer Prize-winning author, Viet Thanh Nguyen, and edited by bestselling author Jonathan Santlofer, this powerful anthology includes original, striking art from fourteen of the country's most celebrated artists, cartoonists, and graphic novelists, including Art Spiegelman, Roz Chast, Marilyn Minter, and Eric Fischl. Transcendent, urgent, and ultimately hopeful, It Occurs to Me That I Am America takes back the narrative of what it means to be an American in the 21st century."
