But if she loses this game, Inspector Jon Gutiérrez will pay with his life.Antonia and Jon have one last chance: they must solve three cases that are considered unsolvable. A game of life and death begins . . .The thrilling conclusion to Juan Gómez-Jurado's international bestselling Red Queen Trilogy.Praise for Juan Gómez-Jurado:'What impresses is the brainy brio of Gómez-Jurado's storytelling, as well as his striking depiction of Madrid as two cities, an elegant baroque facade concealing a gothic underworld' - The Sunday Times'Fizzes with energy and lively scene-setting . . . There are obvious echoes of Lisbeth Salander, but the crackling interplay between Scott and Inspector Gutiérrez, a gay Basque policeman, adds an extra layer of originality, as does Nick Caistor's sparkling translation' - Financial Times'What Gómez-Jurado excels at, as conveyed in Nick Caistor's brisk translation, is pacing of the breakneck variety. Short chapters, funny asides, lethally potent descriptions: they all contribute to a frenetic page-turning momentum . . . you'll have great fun reading it' - The New York Times
