Shtorm

Nicolás Martínez

Sinossi

"Shtorm" plunges us into a gripping narrative, fueled by a cocktail of artificial intelligence, hypersonic weapons, disinformation campaigns, cybercrime, and the specter of mutually assured destruction. The plot, set against a backdrop of rancor, hatred, envy, egos, and ambitions, unfolds amidst a relentless cat-and-mouse game between European capitals and remote terrorist camps.
The novel offers a chilling portrayal of a hybrid war, complete with bombings, assassinations, missile attacks, and a relentless offensive by spies and intelligence specialists operating within renowned European and global information agencies. The narrative is fast-paced, dramatic, and accessible, with precise terminology that avoids unnecessary jargon. The author's argument is both timely and alarming.
In a December 2021 article, Spanish journalist Ricardo Angoso raised a crucial question: "Is there a risk of a war between Russia and Ukraine?" His answer was a sobering one: "It is clear that there is, but whoever ignites this conflict will jeopardize the stability and security of the European continent for years to come, ushering in a new cold war with unpredictable consequences for all."
A systematic understanding of the dynamics driving this situation is essential to assess probabilities, possibilities, and potential solutions. By gaining a clearer perspective, we can hope that in 2024, Europe and the world will be a more harmonious place, free from the global survival challenges depicted in "Shtorm."

The Green Indian Problem

Jade Leaf Willetts

Set in the valleys of South Wales at the tail end of Thatcher's Britain, The Green Indian Problem is the story of Green, a seven year-old with intelligence beyond his years – an ordinary boy with an extraordinary problem: everyone thinks he's a girl.
Green sets out to try and solve the mystery of his identity, but other issues keep cropping up – God, Father Christmas, cancer – and one day his best friend goes missing, leaving a rift in the community and even more unanswered questions. Dealing with deep themes of friendship, identity, child abuse and grief, The Green Indian Problem is, at heart, an all-too-real story of a young boy trying to find out why he's not like the other boys in his class.
Longlisted for the Bridport Prize (in the Peggy Chapman-Andrews category)

When She Dreams

Amanda Quick

Return to 1930s Burning Cove, California, the glamorous seaside playground for Hollywood stars, mobsters, spies, and a host of others who find more than they bargained for in this mysterious town.  
 
Maggie Lodge, assistant to the reclusive advice columnist known only as Dear Aunt Cornelia to her readers, hires down-but-not-quite-out private eye Sam Sage to help track down the person who is blackmailing her employer. Maggie and Sam are a  
mismatched pair. As far as Sam is concerned, Maggie is reckless and in over her head. She is not what he had in mind for a client, but he can’t afford to be choosy. Maggie, on the other hand, is convinced that Sam is badly in need of guidance and good  
advice. She does not hesitate to give him both.  
 
In spite of the verbal fireworks between them, they are fiercely attracted to each other, but both are sure it would be a mistake to let passion take over. They are, after all, keeping secrets. Sam is haunted by his past, which includes a marriage shattered  
by betrayal and violence. Maggie is troubled by intense and vivid dreams—dreams that she can sometimes control. There are those who want to run experiments on her and use her for their own purposes, while others think she should be committed to an asylum.  
 
When the pair discovers someone is impersonating Aunt Cornelia at a conference on psychic dreaming and a woman dies at the conference, the door is opened to a dangerous web of blackmail and murder. Secrets from the past are revealed, leaving  
Maggie and Sam in the path of a ruthless killer who will stop at nothing to exact vengeance.
