No hay que morir dos veces
Intrigue, action and mystery in Inspector Méndez’s Barcelona. González Ledesma has created a definitive Méndez, the perfect one.
Ledesma is a genious in understanding the workings of the criminal mind and is incomparable in his ability to help us to understand the pitfalls of human weakness. A girl who lives isolated and alone in a house that receives a suspicious number of visitors, a man who accepts a mission to kill again, a bride who shoots her groom in the middle of a wedding. Do any of these crimes have anything in common? After this breathtaking beginning, the proof that sheds light on these crimes will be slowly revealed as we follow clues throughout the streets of Barcelona in this stunning novel, which opens up the soul of the killer. Life and death co-exist in this page-turning story, challenging the expectations of the reader by showing us that the line between them is much finer than it seems.
