Crímenes

Carles Porta is probably one of our best journalists, but without a doubt he has been crowned, with his books, podcasts and television series, as a masterful narrator of true stories. In this volume, which collects ten of the most shocking cases of the recent black chronicle, we will discover his literary specialty: telling us extraordinary stories of crime and police work while he keeps us on our toes until the last line. The formula may seem simple, but he makes it inimitable thanks to his rigorous treatment of the great characters he chooses and the way he knows how to wrap them in plots as powerful as they are true. Here we will find, among others: the case of Amaia Azkue, the resident of Zarautz whose murderer was identified by a trivial detail; the shocking disappearance of the Òrrit brothers in the Manresa hospital and the search carried out for decades by his large family; the cold-blooded murder of a man in Madrid because of a macabre role-playing game; or the bloody robbery committed by a woman in Fargo, North Dakota, against her own neighbor.
