About this listen
Una magnífica novela sobre la lealtad y la traición, la moralidad y la corrupción, las luces y las sombras de nuestras sociedades contemporáneas.
La Navidad está a la vuelta de la esquina, y en Quebec eso significa nevadas que encandilan, luces de colores y encuentros con amigos ante una chimenea encendida. Sin embargo, para Armand Gamache, el inspector jefe de la Sûreté du Québec, estas fechas normalmente festivas quedan ensombrecidas: algunos de sus mejores agentes del Departamento de Homicidios han sido trasladados a otras unidades, lleva meses sin hablar con su viejo amigo, el teniente Jean-Guy Beauvoir, y fuerzas hostiles están alineándose contra él.
Así, cuando recibe un mensaje de Myrna Landers desde el pueblecito de Three Pines, Gamache lo ve como una oportunidad para escapar unas horas de la ciudad. Una amiga de Myrna que iba a pasar la Navidad en el pueblo no se ha presentado. Aunque la anfitriona se resiste al principio a decir de quién se trata, el inspector jefe no tardará en descubrir que la desaparecida fue una de las mujeres más famosas no solo de Norteamérica, sino del mundo entero.
A medida que avanza en sus investigaciones, y en medio de idas y venidas entre Montreal y Three Pines durante un invierno muy duro, Gamache destapa una red de asesinatos, mentiras y corrupción de una envergadura colosal. Algo terrible se está tramando en la «jerarquía policial», y el inspector jefe hará todo lo posible para descubrir qué es. Enfrentado a su caso más perturbador hasta la fecha, ¿podrá salvar la reputación de la Sûreté, a las personas que aprecia y a sí mismo?
La crítica ha dicho...
«Louise Penny conjuga un toque íntimo, cercano, casi de andar por casa, con unas tramas muy pegadas al presente. [...] una novela plena, perturbadora en la que destaca el tratamiento de la traición, la corrupción y el fondo de lealtad que alumbra cada paso del inspector-jefe.»
Fernando R. Lafuente, ABC Cultural
«Quién no querría vivir en un mundo literario tan acogedor como el creado por la escritora canadiense Louise Penny en el pueblecito de alta montaña Three Pines. [...] El lector acabará rendido a la calidad y ligereza de la literatura de Louise Penny.»
Lluís Fernández, La Razón

Nada hace presagiar lo que está a punto de ocurrir: Edith Mander, una discreta turista inglesa, aparece muerta en el pabellón de la playa. Lo que parece un suicidio revela indicios imperceptibles para cualquiera salvo para Hopalong Basil, un actor en decadencia que en otro tiempo encarnó en la pantalla al más célebre detective de todos los tiempos.

Two little girls stand with their heads bowed in my living room. I’m told they’re my granddaughters. Daisy is nine, and Alice seven. Daisy is the spitting image of her mother. This is the first time I’ve met them since my daughter and I fell out after she married that waste of space, Vince. They’ve come to live with me because their mother — my daughter — was murdered. In her own home while they slept close by. I think Vince killed her. But the police can’t prove it. I’ve always known he was no good. He treated my daughter like dirt. I said he’d cheat on her — but she wouldn’t listen.

It’s 1984, and life has changed beyond recognition. Airstrip One, formerly known as Great Britain, is a place where Big Brother is always watching, and nobody can hide. Except, perhaps, for Winston Smith. Whilst working at the Ministry of Truth, rewriting history, he secretly dreams of freedom. And in a world where love and sex are forbidden, where it’s hard to distinguish between friend and foe, he meets Julia and O’Brien and vows to rebel.

Story
Kidnappers grabbed Jenna in broad daylight, right in front of her children and their horrified classmates. Her family was issued an insane ransom demand: $25 million in cash and jewels, payable by the end of the school day, otherwise they’ll never see her again. As Jenna’s mother scrambles to gather the money, detectives Mo Butler and George Ortega follow the trail of the kidnappers, which will lead them through a sordid landscape of jealous lovers, broken dreamers, and twisted schemers. But every second counts, and there’s one thing Jenna Wade doesn’t have: very much time.

Story
My fiancé brought me tea and scrambled eggs in bed that morning, and we snuggled together, talking about buying our rings, and about our perfect wedding next year. Then we headed into town. He held my hand and gazed at the ring I liked best, a smile spreading slowly over his face. Then a glass of bubbly to celebrate. I felt flushed, excited and ready for the rest of my life with the man I loved. We race to get on the train home. It screams to a halt and I run towards its open doors. Made it. I think he’s right behind me — but when I turn around, he’s gone.

Story
Jazz Bashara is a criminal. Well, sort of. Life on Artemis, the first and only city on the moon, is tough if you're not a rich tourist or an eccentric billionaire. So smuggling in the occasional harmless bit of contraband barely counts, right? Not when you've got debts to pay and your job as a porter barely covers the rent. Everything changes when Jazz sees the chance to commit the perfect crime, with a reward too lucrative to turn down.
