Encontrar un modo de llegar al infierno y, una vez allí, llevarse un alma. Un plan sencillo, si no fuera porque la gente que realiza este peculiar viaje rara vez consigue volver y porque nunca se sabe qué huella puede dejar en una persona haber estado en un lugar como ese. Pero Galaxy «Alex» Stern está decidida a rescatar a Darlington, incluso si eso supone renunciar a su futuro en Yale. Como les han prohibido rescatarlo, Alex y Dawes no pueden pedir ayuda a la Novena Casa, así que reúnen a un equipo de dudosos aliados para la misión. Juntos deberán recorrer un laberinto de textos arcanos y artefactos extraños para desvelar los secretos mejor guardados del campus. Pero cuando varios profesores comienzan a morir, Alex sabe que no se trata de meros accidentes. Algo mortal merodea por New Haven, y si quiere sobrevivir a lo que quiera que sea, deberá enfrentarse a los monstruos de su pasado y a la oscuridad oculta tras los muros de la universidad. Con una historia que atrapa y los giros de guion propios de Bardugo, La huella del infierno extiende ante nosotros un mundo lleno de magia, violencia y monstruos muy reales.

Lyndsey Duncan worries her career with the CIA might be over. After lines are crossed with another intelligence agent during an assignment, she is sent home to Washington on administrative leave. So when a former colleague--now Chief of the Russia Division--recruits her for an internal investigation, she jumps at the chance to prove herself. Lyndsey was once a top handler in the Moscow Field Station, where she was known as the "human lie detector" and praised for recruiting some of the most senior Russian officials. But now, three Russian assets have been exposed--including one of her own--and the CIA is convinced there's a mole in the department. With years of work in question and lives on the line, Lyndsey is thrown back into life at the agency, this time tracing the steps of those closest to her. Meanwhile, fellow agent Theresa Warner can't avoid the spotlight. She is the infamous "Red Widow," the wife of a former director killed in the field under mysterious circumstances. With her husband's legacy shadowing her every move, Theresa is a fixture of the Russia Division, and as she and Lyndsey strike up an unusual friendship, her knowledge proves invaluable. But as Lyndsey uncovers a surprising connection to Theresa that could answer all of her questions, she unearths a terrifying web of secrets within the department, if only she is willing to unravel it....

After her role in taking down a well-placed mole inside the CIA, Agent Lyndsey Duncan arrives in London fully focused on her newest Russian asset, deadly war criminal Dmitri Tarasenko. That is until her MI6 counterpart, Davis Ranford, personally calls for her help. Following a suspicious attack on Russian oligarch Mikhail Rotenberg's property in a tony part of London, Davis needs Lyndsey to cozy up to the billionaire's aristocratic British wife, Emily Rotenberg. Fortunately for Lyndsey, there's little to dissuade Emily from taking in a much-needed confidante. Even being one of the richest women in the world is no guarantee of happiness. But before Lyndsey can cover much ground with her newfound friend, the CIA unveils a perturbing connection between Mikhail and Russia's geoplitical past, one that could upend the world order and jeopardize Lyndsey's longtime allegiance to the Agency.

In prose of biblical grandeur and feverish intensity, William Faulkner reconstructed the history of the American South as a tragic legend of courage and cruelty, gallantry and greed, futile nobility and obscene crimes. He set this legend in a small, minutely realized parallel universe that he called Yoknapatawpha County, Mississippi.
