  In a desert dotted with war-torn towns, Lázaro and Juan are two soldiers from opposing camps who abandon the war and, while fleeing, become lovers and discover a dark truth. Vicente Barrera, a salesman who swept into the lives of women who both hated and revered him, spends his last days tied up like a mad dog. A morgue worker, Salvador, gets lost in the desert and hallucinating from heat and thirst, mistakes the cactus for the person he loves. Over the echoes of the stories of these broken men—and of their mothers, lovers and companions—Mendoza explores her characters' passions in a way that simmers on the page, and then explodes with pain, fear, and desire in a landscape that imprisons them. 
   
   
   
  Clyo Mendoza has written a novel of extraordinary beauty where language embarks on a hallucinatory trip through eroticism, the transitions of conscience, and the possibility of multiple beings inhabiting a single body. In this journey through madness, incest, sexual abuse, infidelity, and silence, Fury offers a moving questioning of the complexity of love and suffering. The desert is where these characters' destinies become intertwined, where their wounds are inherited and bled dry. Listeners will be blown away by the sensitivity of the writing, and will shudder at the way violence conveyed with a poetic forcefulness and a fierce mastery of the Mexican oral tradition.

  Ava-Marie 
  I escaped the Institute with my partners in crime, and now we’re going to make the world pay.

  I have thousands at my command, but even in the midst of my rule, I fear Charlie is taking things too far. Reality is beginning to bend, and I’ve decided to craft this world to what I decide it should be. 
  I promised that I’d make our enemies burn for what they did to us. 
  Now I’m going to love igniting the flames. 
  Charlie 
  The magical community is ours for the taking. I’ve stepped into the position I was born for, and have become a mob boss operating within shades of gray. I’ve chosen to follow in my grandfather’s footsteps, to obtain power and lead the Elven crime family back into glory. 
  To steal the vampire key, we’ll have to pull off the perfect heist, and go deep into the criminal vampire nest known as The Devil’s City.

  The Mysterious Affair at Styles

  The Mysterious Affair at Styles by Agatha Christie marks the dazzling debut of one of fiction's greatest detectives—Hercule Poirot. First published in 1920, this masterfully constructed novel introduced readers to the meticulous Belgian sleuth whose sharp intellect and methodical reasoning would forever change the landscape of crime fiction.
  
  Set in the quiet English countryside during the First World War, the story unfolds at Styles Court, a grand estate filled with family tensions, hidden rivalries, and simmering suspicions. When the wealthy and formidable Emily Inglethorp is suddenly poisoned, shockwaves ripple through the household. Her unexpected death exposes strained relationships, financial motives, and long-buried secrets among those closest to her.
  
  Captain Arthur Hastings, recently returned from the war, finds himself drawn into the investigation and reconnects with his old acquaintance, Hercule Poirot. With his distinctive mustache, precise manners, and unwavering confidence in his "little grey cells," Poirot approaches the case with keen observation and psychological insight. While the local authorities pursue straightforward theories, Poirot notices subtle inconsistencies that others overlook.
  
  As evidence accumulates—mysterious coffee cups, altered wills, conflicting testimonies—the web of suspicion tightens. Each member of the household appears capable of deceit, and no alibi is beyond scrutiny. Christie's brilliance lies in her ability to guide readers through a labyrinth of clues, red herrings, and carefully placed details, all while maintaining a steady undercurrent of tension.
  
  The novel showcases the hallmarks of Christie's enduring style: intricate plotting, sharp dialogue, and a final revelation that is both surprising and meticulously logical. Through Poirot's calm reasoning and attention to human behavior, the seemingly impossible crime is unraveled with elegance and precision.
  
  Beyond its central mystery, The Mysterious Affair at Styles captures the atmosphere of a changing England—an era marked by social shifts and uncertainty. The confined setting of the country estate intensifies the drama, as suspicion and fear grow among a small circle of suspects bound by family ties and shared history.
  
  As the first appearance of Hercule Poirot, this novel holds a special place in literary history. It not only launched a legendary detective career but also established Agatha Christie as a master of the classic whodunit. Clever, suspenseful, and brilliantly executed, The Mysterious Affair at Styles remains a cornerstone of detective fiction and a captivating introduction to the golden age of crime writing.
