Antonia Scott was a genius before the Red Queen project. Now she's hyper intelligent and broken. She spends her days in an empty flat and her nights next to a Spanish hospital bed being serenaded by an eeg machine. Inspector Jon Gutierrez is flamboyant, jobless and prison is looming; his one chance at redemption is to convince Scott to accompany him to a crime scene at one of the most exclusive residences in the country. Ahead of the pair a body drained of blood, kidnappings with impossible ransom demands and behind them all a ghost who matched wits with the Red Queen at the height of her powers and lost.
Gomez-Jurado's Red Queen, Black Wolf and White King have been huge Spanish bestsellers - be warned you'll get whiplash from the twists and turns and some serious Lisbeth Salander vibes.
