In this volatile mix, Muller finds his personal code of justice is more and more at odds with the compromises of elected office. But there's nothing ambiguous about a dead man floating down Roaring Fork River. A beautiful doctor identifies the John Doe as an acclaimed Argentine journalist, and Muller, drawn in by her stories of brutality and corruption in Argentina, skirts the edges of professional behavior--until she vanishes while under his protection. Implicated in her disappearance and suddenly the FBI's target in a drug-trafficking case based on his radical past, Muller searches desperately for a way to clear himself and protect his family from sinister forces on either side of the law. As he presses closer to the truth, Muller confronts Aspen's changing ethos and, ultimately, an unresolved family tragedy that has haunted his life.

Intolerancia absoluta
by Kenneth Eade Alejandra GutiérrezLa homofobia se vuelve mortal cuando un asesino en serie ataca en esta excelente nueva novela de suspenso legal. El abogado Brent Marks aboga por un caso de matrimonio de una pareja gay. Luego de obtener la victoria, la pareja es encontrada brutalmente asesinada pasando a convertirse en las primeras víctimas de un infame asesino en serie, cuyos blancos son parejas homosexuales. Toda la evidencia apunta a un fanático religioso que ha hablado abiertamente en contra del matrimonio gay y que le pide a Brent que lo defienda. ¿Podrá Brent resolverse a defender al único sospechoso del caso a quien la policía considera responsable? En un terreno donde la ética y la tolerancia chocan, Brent deberá resolver los asesinatos para armar una defensa viable, lo que lo llevará a él y a su equipo directamente a la senda del asesino. Elogios de la crítica “Kenneth Eade es uno de nuestros escritores de thrillers más sólidos y el hecho de que extrae sus historias del panorama filosófico contemporáneo es un gran mérito suyo”. Grady Harp, Amazon Hall of Fame, Top 100 y Vine Voice. “Intolerancia absoluta está llena de emocionantes giros inesperados, pero su verdadera sorpresa reside en la inesperada conclusión que resume con esmero los eventos sin tomar un camino predecible. Esto la convierte en una joya para los lectores de misterios y dramas legales acostumbrados a pistas que llevan a una sola dirección. Sin dar más detalles, baste decir que Intolerancia absoluta da que pensar de principio a fin y es una historia irresistible impulsada por asuntos sobre la religión y las libertades civiles de los gais”. Midwest Book Review.
