The White Road - John Connolly



"In South Carolina, a young black man faces the death penalty on charges of raping and murdering Marianne Larousse, daughter of one of the richest men in the state. The case, which nobody wants to investigate, is rooted in an evil back to the distant past, the type of mystery that has become the specialty of detective Charlie Parker. He knows that is about to plunge into a real nightmare and introduced into a blood-stained scene that mixes the spectrum murderer of a hooded woman, a black car waiting for a passenger that never comes, and the complicity of both friends and foes in the events surrounding the death of Marianne Larousse. Rather than an investigation, is a descent into the abyss, a confrontation with the dark forces that threaten all that Parker loves. "



Connolly, an author who entered the police-esoteric genre with the first novel Charlie Parker series, "Everything dies" I care enough to keep a watchful eye each time you publish a new job. Unfortunately, as is un-American author of crime novels and enters southern lands that could be considered fantasy, he begins to lose some of its literary bellows, because of arguments that mix Satan entangled with the Mafia, historical relics with angels Fallen, beautiful tormentors with wars between Good and Evil with a capital. But still, "The White Road" keeps the curious magic Connelly deployed at the beginning of the series: a formula that combines the environment Voodoo fan, stifling South Carolina, tortured and complex characters, ghostly, frightening psychopaths and blood, many human blood. With a powerful flashback which tells the burning of a poor man by the Ku Klux Klan, Connolly picks up the loose ends and left in "Everything dies" and "Profile murderer" and rescues the charismatic Reverend Faulkner, one of the most heinous serial killer novels seen in this category (I refer to Hannibal Lecter.) This means that readers who are interested to become familiar with the author, must begin with the first book, because the volumes in the series can neither be read independently.
back to "The White Road", Connolly magnifies your best resources here: both a description of atmospheres and landscapes with morbid detail (those swamps get really get the reader between the stinking fumes and rotting vegetation of the place) as a splendid dialogues "Charlie Parker's interview with Faulkner is retrospective, and the irruption of supernatural elements that would lower the tone of the novel, increase the sense of mystery and power beyond human understanding that the author has hinting since the series began. Too bad that reading sometimes stumbled forward, holds and weaknesses of a very thick narrative ambition, who wants to cover too much and ultimately falls short. A Connolly will miss the spider plots, which has a hard time picking the threads that have been scattering to Throughout his novels. In "The White Road" gets more poise than in his previous novels and closes the story with us clean and painless, leaving a good taste of a satisfactory reading, even thrilling.

The moving stories that precede their tragic fates speak of unwavering courage and an unquenchable thirst for life ... Pierre Frei deftly portrays authentic atmosphere of the time, desires, conflicts of conscience and the bittersweet fortunes. An elegantly written novel that fascinates and moves from the first page.

"Berlin 1945" is five stories Red blood on a steel-gray background. The story of a horribly sadistic killer PsychokilleR blonde women in Berlin during the postwar period would be only a mediocre and dramatic thriller were it not for the tremendous literary reconstruction of the time, the city and the characters that breathe life and drama on all four sides. Frei is so ambitious in this respect than just giving up the criminal history itself, but is present throughout the novel, the body belongs to the same historical fresco, as well assembled in the stories of the 5 victims of murderer , women raped, fugitive, desperate, miserable and wounds. As the redeemer of those five dark souls, Dietrich inspector, a weak link in the bureaucratic chain remains in a precarious balance between collaborating with allied forces that have disrupted social order and obedience to their old methods.
As the only haven for a portrait of the intense planning ghosts of anxiety, defeatism and the will to survive despite everything, we develop a sector of the story starring a bewildered young man who finds the first body. The fresh air supply their fun adventures, and in tandem the new regime, offering some of the few relaxed moments of reading complex, multifaceted and often powerful, a novel that is read with avidity and stays imaginary part of the close of the reader.

Harry Potter Fry Audiobook

Chameleon - Peter Robinson



The number 35 of any street, there is any house belonging to a young couple either. But is about to become infamous. When police officers
Janet Taylor and Dennis Morrisey are sent home to attend a domestic violence case, they encounter a grisly scene. One scene involved the death of one and fighting for his life and career of another.

Big words. The afortunadísimo cocktail of suspense, drama and terror that makes up the black heart of this novel has the elements needed to stay and live in the reader's head with the lingering aroma of a classic. Peter Robinson
What is a drop in full-blown beyond hell. Admittedly, the story of a serial murderer in the most ancient tradition of the Gacy, Gein, West, Dutrou or Chikatilo of this world, the writer advocates a kind of novel that can easily slip in and pseudogore stark. But Robinson is a clever enough writer to shun the temptations and should focus not only on the grim portrait of the protagonist and his basement, but also in how evil, spread in concentric waves can affect the past, present and future of all those that have haunted his shadow.
The book reads at a stretch due to its fragmented structure which includes several research threads simultaneously and is very well run with a steady rhythm and dynamic. They must also be tormented characters and / or personal crisis, from the Inspector Banks novel's protagonist, who keeps a tug of love with a fellow professional while still thinking about your ex until the collapse Police Janet Taylor, who has seen the death of mate in his arms without doing anything about it. The criminal plot horrifies and fascinates in equal measure, the catalog of brutality recounted arriving about the case is not for weak hearts or irritable sensibilities. And with the added achievement that tension remains despite knowing who the murderer from almost the beginning of the novel, a murderer who turns out to be an intriguing puzzle whose key elements researchers should look carefully, suspecting the existence an accomplice.
Finally, what about a detective whose production must have alienated the planets, porque lo tiene todo. Teniendo en cuenta además que viene del privilegiado y siniestro cerebro de un escritor cuyo talento no hace más que crecer con los años.
