New Releases by JUSTIN SCOTT

Considerada la novela náutica más leída de la historia después de Moby Dick y una de las mejores obras de suspense jamás publicadas, El cazador de barcos es un relato de amor y venganza en alta mar. Escrita con una prosa vibrante y sustentada en un profundo conocimiento del mundo marítimo, Justin Scott —autor superventas del New York Times— nos ofrece una narración inolvidable sobre la obsesión, la justicia y la lucha de un hombre contra una fuerza descomunal. Durante una travesía en su velero, Peter Hardin y su esposa Carolyn son embestidos por un superpetrolero gigantesco, el Leviathan. Carolyn desaparece en las profundidades del Atlántico; Peter, contra todo pronóstico, sobrevive. Impulsado por el dolor y la impotencia, Hardin emprende entonces una búsqueda implacable que lo llevará a surcar los océanos del mundo, desde las costas de Cornualles hasta las aguas cubiertas de petróleo del golfo Pérsico, y a cruzar las titánicas tormentas del Atlántico sur. El cazador de barcos es la historia de un hombre dispuesto a encontrar en el mar la justicia que le ha sido negada en tierra. Lo que dice la crítica: «Con una pizca de Melville, Scott retrata a sus personajes obsesionados con el mismo estilo con que describe sus embarcaciones». Time Magazine «Como alguien que ha navegado tanto en grandes buques mercantes como en yates, puedo dar fe de que El cazador de barcos capta ambos mundos de forma brillante y, además, es una soberbia historia marítima». Christopher Buckley «Impresionante. Absolutamente absorbente. Una historia de venganza maravillosa, tensa y magistralmente contada, sobre el mar y las fuerzas oscuras que pueden moldear la condición humana». Robert Ludlum, autor de la trilogía de Jason Bourne «Una de las mejores novelas de aventuras náuticas». Yachting Magazine

Two rival queens. History''s greatest playwright. And a deadly plot for the crown. London, 1600. With no legitimate heir to Queen Elizabeth''s throne, and no clear successor with her modern vision of a civilization that thrives in peace and diversity, England is in a supremely perilous moment. Elizabeth''s foes understand the power of a poet''s voice to shape popular opinion, and force esteemed playwright William Shakespeare to write a script detailing the history of Queen Elizabeth and the catholic Mary Queen of Scots that will tumble the nation into civil war. Faced with a terrible dilemma, Will must navigate a dangerous path through the corridors of the wealthy, the refuse-filled warrens of London and the byzantine world of Elizabethan politics as he tries to save both his family and his own legacy.

«Quando si parla di Cussler è la fantasia a comandare e lo scopo della fantasia è quello di emozionarci, stupirci.» la Repubblica - Luca d''Andrea Edna, profonda come l’oceano, o Nellie, che abbaglia come un caleidoscopio? Isaac Bell è concentrato su questa decisione quando la Commissione federale lo incarica di investigare sulla Standard Oil, la compagnia petrolifera fondata da John D.

Il cecchino misterioso lascia una scia di morte ovunque passi – omicidi, sparatorie, avvelenamenti, curiosi incidenti e grandi esplosioni che coinvolgono le raffinerie indipendenti nelle regioni della «febbre del petrolio» –, una scia che attira Isaac Bell e la sua voglia di assicurarlo alla legge. In un inseguimento serratissimo tra Kansas e Texas, dall’enclave dei magnati di New York alla Russia dei giacimenti petroliferi di Baku, devastati dalla guerra nel Mar Caspio, Isaac Bell non molla il suo obiettivo. E, tornato in America, si prepara per lo scontro finale. Il più esplosivo di tutti.
