Description
Tras Dicker, D'Andrea y Lemaitre, Alfaguara Negra presenta el debut del ano: Flores sobre el infierno de Ilaria Tuti, el thriller tiene nombre de mujer. El primer cadaver es el de un hombre desnudo, con la cara desfigurada y los ojos arrancados. Algo aterrador esta ocurriendo en las montanas: un recien nacido ha desaparecido y una sombra misteriosa vaga por los bosques. El caso requiere de todas las habilidades de Teresa Battaglia, comisaria de policia especializada en perfiles criminales que, todos los dias, camina sobre el infierno. Su mejor arma es la mente, pero ultimamente la esta enganando; su lucidez esta en riesgo y la investigacion, por tanto, tambien. Por primera vez en su vida, tiene miedo. Teresa y el joven inspector Massimo Marini, llegado desde hace poco de la ciudad a este enclave montanoso, deberan llevar a cabo la investigacion mas dificil a la que se han enfrentado jamas: un caso que hunde sus raices en los episodios mas oscuros y estremecedores de la historia de este rincon milenario del norte de Italia: un infierno que aun sigue latiendo. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Ilaria Tuti's thriller debut explores a remote community in Northern Italy-a place of secrets, eerie folktales, and primal instincts. In a quiet village surrounded by ancient woods and the imposing Italian Alps, a man is found naked with his eyes gouged out. It is the first in a string of gruesome murders. Superintendent Teresa Battaglia, a detective with a background in criminal profiling, is called to investigate. Battaglia is in her mid-sixties, her rank and expertise hard-won from decades of battling for respect in the male-dominated Italian police force. While she's not sure she trusts the young city inspector assigned to assist her, she sees right away that this is no ordinary case: buried deep in these mountains is a dark history that may endanger a group of eight-year-old children toward whom the killer seems to gravitate. As Teresa inches closer to the truth, she must also confront the possibility that her body and mind, worn down by age and illness, may fail her before the chase is over.
