NOVEDADES

TODAVÍA NO HAS VISTO NADA Se acerca la Navidad en Estocolmo y la ciudad se llena de luces. Pero algo siniestro está a punto de suceder: al mismo tiempo que un miembro del ministerio sueco está siendo amenazado de una forma macabra, una pila de huesos de aspecto misterioso es hallada en las vías de metro abandonado de la ciudad, y todo apunta a que pertenecen a un importante financiero. La investigadora Mina Dabiri y sus compañeros del departamento de Homicidios, todavía en shock tras los trágicos acontecimientos del verano pasado, se verán puestos a prueba de nuevo. Cuando las pistas empiezan a escasear, Mina decide recurrir al mentalista Vincent Walder. Él, a su vez, lucha incansablemente contra sus propios demonios. ¿Qué o quiénes se esconden en los túneles en las profundidades de Estocolmo? Y, lo más importante, ¿con qué motivo?

For the ancients, everything worth pursuing in life flowed from a strong sense of justice or one’s commitment to doing the right thing, no matter how difficult. In order to be courageous, wise, and self-disciplined, one must begin with justice. The influence of the modern world often tells us that acting justly is optional. Holiday argues that that’s simply untrue—and the fact that so few people today have the strength to stand by their convictions explains much about why we’re so unhappy.

Once upon a time, the Peacock sisters were little girls who combed each other’s tangled hair. But decades of secrets have led them to separate lives—and to telling lies, to themselves and to one another. Sylvie is getting married. Again. A librarian and widow who soothes her grief by escaping into books (and shelving them perfectly), Sylvie has caught the attention of an unlikely match: Simon Rampling, a mysterious, wealthy man from Northern England. Sylvie allows herself to imagine a life beside him—one filled with the written word, kindness, and companionship. She’s ready to love again . . . or is she? Cleo is the golden child. A successful criminal defense lawyer with the perfect boyfriend, she is immediately suspicious of Simon. Is he really who he says he is? Cleo heads to Mumberton Castle with a case of investigative files, telling herself she will expose Simon and save her sister from more heartbreak . . . but who is she really trying to save? Emma is living a lie. She can’t afford this fancy trip—and she definitely can’t tell her husband and sons why. She once dreamed of a line of her own perfumes. Fragrances allowed her to speak in silence. Now, that tendency for silence only worsens her situation. Will she emerge with her dignity and family intact? When their toxic mother shows up, the sisters assume the roles they fell into to survive their childhood . . . but they just might find the courage to make new choices. Set over a spectacularly dramatic weekend, in the grand halls of a sprawling castle estate—amid floor-to-ceiling libraries, falconry lessons, and medieval meals—Lovers and Liars is the unforgettable story of a family’s ability to forgive and to find joy in one another once again.
