The World Beneath

Devastated by the untimely murder of her secretive cross-dressing brother, crime reporter Hannah Vogel of 1931 Berlin finds the case complicated by the arrival of an orphan who claims that Hannah and her brother are his parents.

A Trace of Smoke

Journalist Hannah Vogel has vowed to never again set foot in her homeland of Germany while the Nazis are still in power. She has good reason: three years ago in 1931, she kidnapped her “son,” Anton, from the man claiming to be his father--Ernst Rohm, head of the Nazis' SA. A powerful man not to be trifled with, Hannah knows that Rohm will never stop searching for them. Hannah is asked to write about a zeppelin journey from South America to Switzerland, but Switzerland turns out to be too close. The zeppelin is diverted to Munich, where Hannah and Anton are kidnapped and, to Hannah's horror, separated. It’s unlucky timing for Rohm, however. Hitler has ordered the execution of Rohm and hundreds of his storm troopers and is determined to wipe out any remaining traces of his name. The Night of the Long Knives has begun. When Rohm is killed before Hannah can ascertain Anton’s whereabouts, she desperately enlists all of her remaining sources and friends to locate Anton before the Nazis do. And the Gestapo is closing in… Thrilling and powerful, A Night of Long Knives breathtakingly recreates a shattered and betrayed city as it plunges into darkness.

A Night of Long Knives

A city of broken glass

Set in 1936, Cantrell's well-paced third mystery featuring German crime reporter Hannah Vogel (after 2010's disappointing A Night of Long Knives) returns to the high level of her debut, 2009's A Trace of Smoke. Sought by the Gestapo for kidnapping the son of a high-ranking Nazi official, Vogel has assumed the alias of Adelheid Zinsli, a Swiss reporter, to cover the Olympic Games while spying for the British. Vogel arranges to meet with her old mentor, Peter Weill, at the Berlin Olympic Stadium, but right after Weill tells her that he needs to get some information out of the country, he keels over. While the death appears to be the result of a heart attack, Vogel believes that poison was responsible. Her search for the truth, aided by an SS officer of uncertain trustworthiness, leads her to a deadly secret. While not in Philip Kerr's league, Cantrell does a fine job evoking the period.

The Man in the Attic

On the Train

Autores de vários bestsellers, James Rollins e Rebecca Cantrell combinam seus talentos – ele, a habilidade em misturar ciência e mistérios históricos; ela, a perícia em criar uma atmosfera de suspense e sensualidade – em mais uma parceria de sucesso. Primeiro volume da série A Ordem dos Sanguíneos, O evangelho de sangue é um thriller gótico no qual ação e mistério ditam o tom da trama, uma bem-sucedida mistura de Entrevista com o vampiro com O Código Da Vinci. Um terremoto em Masada, Israel, causa centenas de mortes e revela um templo subterrâneo no coração da montanha. Dentro dele, uma tumba guarda o corpo crucificado de uma menina mumificada. Três pesquisadores são enviados para explorar a descoberta macabra: sargento Jordan Stone, especialista forense militar; padre Rhun Korza um, clérigo do Vaticano; e Dra. Erin Granger, uma arqueóloga brilhante, mas desiludida. Ao examinarem o sarcófago, eles dão pela falta de um objeto misterioso: um livro que teria sido escrito pela própria mão de Cristo, um tomo que dizem guardar os segredos de Sua divindade. Um livro que se manteve, por muitos anos, preservado naquele local. Um ataque brutal interrompe a exploração, e os três são lançados numa busca pelo exemplar desaparecido. No encalço do grupo, uma força do mal ancestral dirigida por um líder extremamente ardiloso, com ambições desmedidas. Passando de túmulos desmoronando a igrejas esplendorosas, Erin e seus companheiros precisam enfrentar um passado que remonta a milhares de anos, um momento histórico em que Cristo fez uma oferenda milagrosa, em um pacto de salvação pelos que foram condenados por toda a eternidade. Este romance explosivo revela uma história secreta, guardada a sete chaves, que remetem a uma seita secreta dentro do Vaticano, uma seita que muitos consideram um boato, mas cuja existência foi pintada pelo próprio Rembrandt, para que todos possam ver; uma ordem obscura conhecida simplesmente como Os Sanguíneos.
