Tori (Glory #2)
by Dale MayerThis is the second book in the new paranormal fantasy series Glory. Hurt and betrayed, Tori has gone into hiding. Anything to give her time to heal from losing the love of her life. Devon came looking for her—for all the wrong reasons. He needs her help to save a large band of locals caught behind a weird energy pattern. As an energy worker, she can't turn her back on those in need. She will help him, but only if he disappears from her life forever. He agrees, but has no intention of honoring his promise. She's finally let him back into her life—he has no intention of screwing up a second time. Tori isn't big on forgiveness, but she is big on Devon. Only the weird energy pattern was a problem—a big problem—and the start of something sinister. Before she can work out what's going on, the stakes go up, and she realizes there might not be a future for either of them.

Tormenta (Jeremy Logan #Volumen 1)
by Lincoln ChildEl doctor Crane está a punto de verse inmerso en un asunto escalofriante, en el que la ciencia puntera se confunde con las pesadillas más siniestras... y quizá no totalmente imposibles. Una plataforma petrolera del Atlántico Norte solicita urgentemente la ayuda de un médico, el doctor Peter Crane. Este, al llegar, se encuentra con un panorama desolador: un gran número de trabajadores sufren una confusa variedad de síntomas extraños. A pesar de que no consigue un diagnóstico claro, las investigaciones del doctor Crane revelan datos asombrosos. La plataforma se levanta sobre una estructura de muchos niveles habitada por científicos y técnicos que se dedican a un proyecto ultrasecreto: localizar e investigar los restos de una antigua y sofisticada civilización, la legendaria Atlántida. Para ello se ha construido un laboratorio dotado de la más avanzada tecnología, que les permite penetrar en la corteza terrestre hasta más de tres kilómetros de profundidad. Este proyecto podría hacer emerger de las profundidades abismales del océano el mayor descubrimiento arqueológico de la historia... o quizás el más terrorífico. Clive Cussler ha dicho...«Child narra su historia con estilo y capacidad de fascinar. El suspense está perfectamente creado. Una historia submarina original y que deja huella.»

Tormenta sobre Alejandría
by Luis Manuel RuizTormenta sobre Alejandría nos revela la decadencia de una civilización que se transformó en el foco del mundo, en un relato que combina, con audacia y una prosa subyugante, la intriga, la filosofía y la historia. Siglo V. La célebre Biblioteca de Alejandría en ruinas. Una cadena de misteriosos crímenes y un solo hombre que deberá resolverlos, mientras el mundo a su alrededor está a punto de llegar a su fin. Hubo un tiempo en que una ciudad fundada por un emperador adolescente abarcó el mundo entero. Hubo un tiempo en que en el centro de esa ciudad se elevó un edificio único, donde cabía toda la sabiduría humana. Hubo un tiempo en que una mujer de cabello incandescente gobernó aquella Biblioteca y quiso adelantar a todos los hombres en la adquisición de la amargura que es el precio del conocimiento. Hubo un tiempo en que un dios nuevo, manchado de sangre, obligaba a las mujeres a callar. Hasta que ese tiempo remoto tocó a su fin. Reseñas:«Es un escritor magnífico. No estamos hablando de una novela o un autor de moda, sino que Luis Manuel Ruiz tiene calidad y memoria literarias. Su obra es densa y tiene trama, presentación, nudo y desenlace.»Arturo Pérez-Reverte

Torn
by Casey HillRead the clues. Decode the science. Reveal the murderer. That's Reilly Steel's mantra. Find the answers, solve the crime. But the Quantico-trained forensic investigator is finding her skills aren't enough when a ferociously intelligent killer strikes Dublin. The modus operandi is as perplexing as it is macabre. What connects the two seemingly disparate, high-profile victims? Their corpses refuse to give up their secrets and the crime scenes prove a forensic investigator's worst nightmare. Reilly soon suspects that she may be dealing with a killer - or killers - who know all about crime scene investigation. The police are just as frustrated by the crimes' impenetrable nature and it's only when a third murder occurs - equally graphic and elaborate in its execution - that they discover that this particular killer is using a very specific blueprint for his crimes. Who is the killer's next victim, the real target? And what's his endgame?
