The Shelter

The long-awaited sequel to a detective bestseller—Maria Oruñya’s new thrilling novel that blends the romance of Spain’s countryside with the tense pace of a thriller.

Unexpected results of forensic medical examination give rise to the most unbelievable theories. Does it seem that the murdered girl moved into our time from the past? Even while the most skeptical people puzzle over this possibility, another murder occurs in the area. The investigation is joined by Inspector Valentina Redondo, as well as an Englishman, Oliver Gordon, who is searching for his brother. Their paths will cross, and the solution will be shocking.
