BESTSELLER DEL NEW YORK TIMES El libroq que inspir� la serie de PBS. SI ENTRAS EN ESTE ROMPECABEZAS LITERARIO, NO PODR�S SALIR HASTA LA �LTIMA P�GINA
Un asesinato brillante. Tan buena como una novela de Agatha Christie. Quiz� incluso mejor, m�s inteligente. Susan Ryeland ha sido durante a�os la editora del exc�ntrico escritor superventas Alan Conway. Los lectores adoran al protagonista de su serie m�s famosa, el detective Atticus P�nd, que se dedica a resolver cr�menes en la d�cada de los cincuenta por pueblecitos ingleses aparentemente tranquilos. Sin embargo, la �ltima novela que ha entregado Conway, y a la que le faltan los �ltimos cap�tulos, no es como las dem�s y est� a punto de cambiar la vida de Susan. Aunque en la narraci�n hay cad�veres y una interesante lista de sospechosos, entre las p�ginas del manuscrito se esconde otra historia: una trama que se entrelaza con la vida real en la que los celos, las envidias, las ambiciones despiadadas y los asesinatos superan con creces a la ficci�n. Anthony Horowitz, autor superventas del New York Times, nos transporta a un laber�ntico misterio que encierra otro misterio de la mano de personajes dignos de los mejores cl�sicos en un escenario contempor�neo impecable y plagado de suspense. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
NOW A PBS SERIES From the New York Times bestselling author of Moriarty and Trigger Mortis, this fiendishly brilliant, riveting thriller weaves a classic whodunit worthy of Agatha Christie into a chilling, ingeniously original modern-day mystery. When editor Susan Ryeland is given the manuscript of Alan Conway's latest novel, she has no reason to think it will be much different from any of his others. After working with the bestselling crime writer for years, she's intimately familiar with his detective, Atticus P�nd, who solves mysteries disturbing sleepy English villages. An homage to queens of classic British crime such as Agatha Christie and Dorothy Sayers, Alan's traditional formula has proved hugely successful. So successful that Susan must continue to put up with his troubling behavior if she wants to keep her job. Conway's latest tale has Atticus P�nd investigating a murder at Pye Hall, a local manor house. Yes, there are dead bodies and a host of intriguing suspects, but the more Susan reads, the more she's convinced that there is another story hidden in the pages of the manuscript: one of real-life jealousy, greed, ruthless ambition, and murder. Masterful, clever, and relentlessly suspenseful, Magpie Murders is a deviously dark take on vintage English crime fiction in which the reader becomes the detective.
