Beschreibung

A finales del mes de julio, al borde de las vacaciones y con el calor acechando cuerpos y mentes, el único objetivo del abogado protagonista de esta novela, con tanta habilidad para sacar adelante sus casos como pocos escrúpulos para complacer a sus clientes, es poder disfrutar de unos días de tranquilidad junto a su pareja y su hija.
Pero ni la isla ni su trabajo le darán tregua. La isla, porque algunos de los cadáveres que con frecuencia recibe en sus costas tienen que ver —más de lo que parece— con su pasado, su familia y sus tejemanejes. Y su trabajo, porque un caso que implica a sus amistades más íntimas, y que ni siquiera quería aceptar, terminará por envolverlo en una historia de violencia, traición, corrupción y ambición que lo va sacando, poco a poco, de la seguridad que había encontrado al otro lado de la línea…
… Una línea que no es más que un muro de adjetivos, esos que no aparecen por ningún lado en esta novela que C. J. Nieto ha pergeñado con el pulso de los maestros del género y que nos fascinará por su pericia en el estilo, su pulso al narrar y, también, por su control del tempo y la tensión en la narración, su ironía y, sí, su conciencia.
Porque los adjetivos pesan, y esta novela, sin aditivos, nos hace evidente, en su ausencia, cómo su carga lastra las vidas de los que viven evitando asomarse al otro lado de ese muro que separa a los blancos de los negros, a los corruptos de los puros, a los legales de los ilegales, a los violentos de los pacíficos… Pero ¿qué hacer cuando ese muro se ha derrumbado?

    The British Prime Minister’s police protection unit has been infiltrated by rogue officers. The threat is unprecedented. For Novak and Mitchell, the consequences are unthinkable. 
     
    Prime Minister, Angela Curtis, faces a threat like never before: resign, or the British establishment will face three days of increasingly audacious terrorist attacks. But if Curtis wants to save lives – and her political career – she must confront the darkest secret from her past. 
     
    When fearless reporters Tom Novak and Stella Mitchell uncover evidence linking the attacks to the biggest story of their careers, they have one last chance at exposing a traitor at the heart of government. But this traitor won’t go down without a fight. Or blood being spilled. 
     
    With a ruthless assassin on Novak and Mitchell’s trail, the conclusion of an astonishing conspiracy is in sight. But the clock is ticking, and the stakes have never been higher – or more personal. 
     
    In this endgame, nobody is safe.

    The events of September 11, 2001, the invasion of Iraq, the threat of radical Islamists, an impending showdown with Iran—what do these things have in common? Oil. And the world is running out. The Shell Game is far more than a thriller; it is a cautionary tale that exposes the next 9/11 event, a deception that will lead to a retaliatory chemical weapons strike on Iran and the terrorist elements that the regime supports. Though written as fiction, this novel is filled with all-too-real details provided by insiders in the oil industry, military, and Middle Eastern affairs and extrapolates from real events of the past and present a future that will lead us down a path of self-destruction, unless we stop the insanity now. 
    In 2007 two CIA spooks meet with an American colonel in military intelligence. The war is going badly, and President Bush, who steadfastly refuses to back down, remains unchallenged at home as Democrats and Republicans continue to toss verbal grenades, positioning themselves for the 2008 elections. Meanwhile, Iran’s pursuit of nuclear energy will yield enriched uranium within five years—uranium that can be used to manufacture suitcase nukes. The United States military is too drained to invade Iran, and a preemptive strike is out of the question; unless, that is, a nuclear detonation were to occur in an American city—one in which the uranium can be traced back to Iran. A US reprisal would strike a death blow to radical Islam, quell the insurgent violence in Iraq, and yield more oil. Yes, the cost is unthinkable, but sitting back and doing nothing could result in a dozen suitcase bombs going off in a dozen American cities, bringing with them anarchy and the collapse of Western civilization. 
    December 2011. Ashley “Ace” Futrell is an oil expert working for PetroConsultants and married to Kelli Doyle, a former National Security advisor and one of the CIA spooks in the 2007 meeting. When Kelli threatens to expose the plot, Ace finds his existence hurtling down a rabbit hole of deceit in which the orchestrated lies of the powerful few could lead to the darkest days of human existence and the death knell for billions.
