The Shelter

The long-awaited continuation of the detective bestseller—a new chilling novel by Maria Orunья, where sleepy romance of the Spanish backcountry blends perfectly with the fast pace of an exciting thriller. Several months have passed since the terrible murders occurred in Suanесa, a small town on the coast of Cantabria. And now, when life seemed to have returned to familiar tracks, nearby—in ancient ruins—they discover the body of a girl dressed like a medieval princess and lying in the pose of the Sleeping Beauty.

A sudden conclusion of a forensic examination gives rise to the most insane assumptions. The murdered girl moved into our time straight from the past? And while even the harshest skeptics are trying to figure out the possibility of time travel, a new murder happens in the district.

The case is taken up by the beautiful inspector Valentina Redondo. At the same time, an Englishman, Oliver Gordon, who moved to live in Cantabria after a personal tragedy, begins another investigation—trying to find his brother, who hasn’t been heard from for several years.

Two seemingly completely different routes are destined to meet at one point, and the solution will be dark and shocking.

At home, Maria Orunья’s novel “Shelter” was released in 150,000 copies— which, considering the enormous success of the first book in the series, “Hidden Bay,” is far from the limit! Listen to the audio version of the new detective bestseller in a lively and captivating performance by actress Nadezhda Menshova.
