AN EMBER IN THE ASHES

Laia is a slave. Elias is a soldier. Neither is free. Under the Martial Empire, defiance is met with death. Those who do not vow their blood and bodies to the Emperor risk the execution of their loved ones and the destruction of all they hold dear. It is in this brutal world, inspired by ancient Rome, that Laia lives with her grandparents and older brother. The family ekes out an existence in the Empire’s impoverished backstreets. They do not challenge the Empire. They’ve seen what happens to those who do. But when Laia’s brother is arrested for treason, Laia is forced to make a decision. In exchange for help from rebels who promise to rescue her brother, she will risk her life to spy for them from within the Empire’s greatest military academy. There, Laia meets Elias, the school’s finest soldier—and secretly, its most unwilling. Elias wants only to be free of the tyranny he’s being trained to enforce. He and Laia will soon realize that their destinies are intertwined—and that their choices will change the fate of the Empire itself.

VAMPIRE ACADEMY

Love and loyalty run deeper than blood. St. Vladimir’s Academy isn’t just any boarding school—it’s a hidden place where vampires are educated in the ways of magic and half-human teens train to protect them. Rose Hathaway is a Dhampir, a bodyguard for her best friend Lissa, a Moroi Vampire Princess. They’ve been on the run, but now they’re being dragged back to St. Vladimir’s—the very place where they’re most in danger. . . . Rose and Lissa become enmeshed in forbidden romance, the Academy’s ruthless social scene, and unspeakable nighttime rituals. But they must be careful lest the Strigoi—the world’s fiercest and most dangerous vampires—make Lissa one of them forever.

LIBERTY BAR (BOL)

Lejos del ambiente brumoso y húmedo de la mayoría de los casos de Maigret, Liberty Bar nos lleva a la Costa Azul, donde el comisario llega para investigar el asesinato de un rico terrateniente australiano que había abandonado las convenciones y los deberes de su clase para darse la buena vida en compañía de un elenco de personajes variopintos reunidos en un bar de Niza. Sin embargo, incluso en una atmósfera de vacaciones, el comisario descubriá que la naturaleza humana es oscura y, fiel a su divisa de comprender sin juzgar, revelará una tragedia doméstica de intereses cruzados.

CASO SAINT-FIACRE (BOL)

uando una carta anónima anuncia que durante la misa del Día de Difuntos se cometerá un crimen en Saint-Fiacre, el pueblo natal de Maigret en Bretaña, el comisario debe regresar a sus orígenes para evitarlo. Al terminar la misa una feligresa ha muerto, como se había anunciado. Y Maigret, a pesar de haber estado presente y atento, no ha visto absolutamente nada que le permita saber quién o quiénes han cometido el crimen. Con sus habituales paciencia y perspicacia, el comisario deberá internarse en los secretos de toda una comunidad, un mundo en vías de desaparición donde la pequeña noblesa local pretende dictar la ley sin miramientos ni compasión.
