Описание: Sono el telefono y supo que la iban a matar. Lo supo con tanta certeza que se quedo inmovil, la cuchilla en alto, el cabello pegado a la cara entre el vapor del agua caliente que goteaba en los azulejos.

Bip-bip. Se quedo muy quieta, conteniendo el aliento como si la inmovilidad o el silencio pudieran cambiar el curso de lo que ya habia ocurrido.

Bip-bip. Estaba en la banera, depilandose la pierna derecha, el agua jabonosa por la cintura, y su piel desnuda se erizo igual que si acabara de reventar el grifo del agua fria.

Bip-bip. En el estereo del dormitorio, los Tigres del Norte cantaban historias de Camelia la Tejana. La traicion y el contrabando, decian, son cosas compartidas.

La critica ha dicho...

El encuentro de John Le Carre con Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Perez-Reverte tiene un enorme grupo de seguidores que sigue creciendo.

The Wall Street Journal

Es un contador de historias increible.

USA Today

Entretenida como pocas, hermosa por su construccion e inquietante por la grave problematica que late debajo de la aventura criminal. A esta radiografia del delito anade ademas el autor un canto a la propia literatura.

El Cultural

Pasen y lean. El espectaculo esta no solamente servido sino asegurado.

El Pais

Junten el desencanto neorromantico de Barry Gifford con la maestria narrativa de Juan Marse y anadan una banda sonora con el desgarro de Chavela Vargas. El resultado de semejante mezcolanza ya tiene titulo: La Reina del Sur.

El Periodico de Cataluna

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

The phone rang and she knew they were going to kill her.

The certainty of it kept her motionless, blade high in the air, hair stuck to her face, a cloud of steam and drops of water cursing down the tiles.

Blip, blip. Frozen, she held her breath as if the stillness, or the silence, could somehow change the course of the past.

Blip, blip. She was sitting in the bathtub, in the middle of shaving her right leg, soapy water rising to her waist, her flesh full of goose-bumps the warm water did nothing to ease.

Blip, blip. In her bedroom, the stereo blasted Los Tigres del Norte singing Camelia la Tejana -betrayal and contraband, they said, are like oil and vinegar. So begins a journey that will transform this innocent barrio beauty into a woman who is tough and powerful enough to write her own rules.

Описание: This international bestseller inspired the must-watch drama on USA Network starring Alice Braga as Teresa Mendoza.
From "master of the intellectual thriller" Arturo Perez-Reverte, a remarkable tale, spanning decades and continents--from the dusty streets of Mexico to the sparkling waters off the coast of Morocco, to the Strait of Gibraltar and Spain--in a story encompassing sensuality and cruelty, love and betrayal, and life and death.
Few authors inspire the kind of passion that Arturo Perez-Reverte does. Reviewers, readers, and booksellers alike have embraced his fiction as the perfect blend of suspense and literary ambition. A global bestseller, he is one of the most admired and widely read authors in the world. And this stunning novel is his best yet.
Teresa Mendoza's boyfriend is a drug smuggler who the narcos of Sinaloa, Mexico, call "the king of the short runway," because he can get a plane full of coke off the ground in three hundred yards. But in a ruthless business, life can be short, and Teresa even has a special cell phone that Guero gave her along with a dark warning. If that phone rings, it means he's dead, and she'd better run, because they're coming for her next.
Then the call comes.
In order to survive, she will have to say goodbye to the old Teresa, an innocent girl who once entrusted her life to a pinche narco smuggler. She will have to find inside herself a woman who is tough enough to inhabit a world as ugly and dangerous as that of the narcos-a woman she never before knew existed. Indeed, the woman who emerges will surprise even those who know her legend, that of the Queen of the South.

Описание: Un encargo editorial pone a Alejandra Varela, especialista en arte urbano, tras la pista de Sniper, un reconocido artista del grafiti, promotor de acciones callejeras al l mite de la legalidad --algunas de ellas con resultados fatales-- del que casi nadie ha visto jam s el rostro ni conoce el paradero. La b squeda conducir a la protagonista de Madrid a Lisboa, y de ah a Verona y N poles en su intento por descifrar cu l es el objetivo al que apunta la mira mortal del cazador solitario. En mis novelas siempre hay una pica, una clase determinada de h roe. En este sentido El francotirador paciente no se sale de ese territorio. El mundo del grafiti callejero es un escenario muy interesante y tiene tambi n un componente singular de aventura, de guerrilla urbana... En esta ocasi n he llevado a mis personajes de siempre a un territorio muy actual, contempor neo , afirma el autor. El francotirador paciente es tambi n una original reflexi n sobre el papel del arte y su valor en nuestros d as, un asunto que el escritor ya trat en novelas anteriores como El pintor de batallas o La tabla de Flandes. El francotirador paciente es un thriller que apasiona, un formidable duelo de inteligencias, un juego al l mite entre perseguidor y presa. Porque el tiempo no es lo m s importante cuando quedan cuentas pendientes. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION An editorial assignment sets urban-art specialist Alejandra Varela on the trail of Sniper, a mysterious graffiti artist and promoter of activities bordering on illegal--with sometimes fatal results. Her attempts to figure out the lone hunter's next target of the lonely hunter's will take Varela from Madrid to Lisbon, and from there to Verona and Naples.The novel is an electrifying thriller, a formidable duel of the minds, and a daring game between hunter and pray, where time is of no import when there are still accounts to be settled. El francotirador paciente is also a remarkable reflection on the role of art and its value in our times, something the author has touched upon in previous novels such as El pintor de batallas and La tabla de Flandes."There is always something epic in my novels, a certain class of hero. In this sense, El francotirador paciente does not deviate from this terrain. The world of graffiti is a very interesting setting and it also has the unique component of urban warfare and adventure... This time I have taken my usual characters to a contemporary and very current territory," said the author.
