"Ann Fletcher has returned to Charleston to see her younger sister Sarah receive her master's degree. But she soon finds…
herself riding in the back of an ambulance, watching helplessly as Sarah fights for her life. As they race to the hospital, Sarah talks to someone who is not there...and hums a melody Ann has never heard before. That unfamiliar, unearthly beautiful melody keeps finding Ann--first in the hospital chapel, then in her dreams, and finally in Sarah's empty house. Two neighbors have a profound effect on Ann. Ethan McKinney lends her a shoulder to lean on. And as a carpenter, he volunteers to help Ann get the Fletcher family home into shape for selling. His strong presence is a pleasing distraction. Ann's twelve-year-old neighbor, Keith, has Down Syndrome and the guile to believe he can actually see and hear angels. In fact, he insists they are looking out for her in ways she's never imagined. God begins to reveal himself to Ann--both in her newfound friends and through supernatural events. As she discovers the very real presence of angels around her, will she finally open her heart to receive God's healing love?" -- GoodreadsEcos

love story full of deep seduction. A story of terrible longing and bold sacrifice. Then as now, evil begins its courtship cloaked in light. And the heart embraces what it should flee.

Par Santiago Ambao. 2020
"Things that happen just because, coffees that are thrown in the sink without drinking, toast that is thrown in the…
trash without eating, a protagonist who tries to name his feelings but forces himself not to think in certain directions, a woman who is almost always in the shower or behind other kinds of screens, another woman shows promise but barely scratches the surface, an innocent and slightly cross-eyed girl, a civil servant who goes crazy just when he is reaching his retirement, a boss or two who do and undo as they please, two children who immerse themselves in the PlayStation's twisted reality, the latest television, a comfortable armchair and the best possible coffee maker, the unfulfilled desire to go fishing as a family, an inner escape, a future escape. Santiago Ambao has put all these ingredients in a cocktail shaker and has extracted from it a brilliant story, well shaken and blended, although what makes it even greater is to join it with another parallel, underground story that takes place on the other side of the world, a kind of political and economic plot, a mixture of realism and science fiction, or rather the fruit of a disturbingly visionary realism." -- Translation provided by NLSBeso: Ella Te Roba Más Que El Corazón

Par Sergio Ramírez. 2015
"A biblical story, that of Sarah and Abraham, told from her perspective: the woman behind the patriarch. Sara is a…
well-documented, credible novel, written with humor and inventiveness, presenting the human side of biblical characters. Sara is the narration of a pilgrimage through hostile kingdoms and inhospitable lands, while complying with the arbitrary indications transmitted to Abraham by Iahweh or "the Magician," a multiform being who does not seem to like laughter. While camped in the vicinity of the Salt Lake, near Sodom and Gomorrah, three young men appear before the couple to announce that the infertile and elderly Sarah will give birth to a son who will make Abraham the offspring of countless generations. Although generation after generation believed this to be a story starring men, it is Sarah, with her irony, humor, incredulity, tenacity, and ability to question divine designs, who endows it with authenticity." -- Translation provided by NLSCauterio
Par Lucía Lijtmaer. 2022

to Madrid with a secret and the conviction that the apocalypse is approaching.

What do these two women have in common? Why have they decided to walk away from what they know and start anew?" -- Translation provided by NLSTercer mundo
Par Pedro Cabiya. 2019
"Orishas, saints, luases, demons and angels frolic in a fantastic Puerto Rico that only the fertile imagination of Pedro Cabiya…
could have conceived. Different ministries of the multiverse's administrative bureaucracy compete to recover the valuable extraterrestrial contraband abandoned in Santurce, capital of the Borikwa Republic.... But stealing the loot won't be as easy as they think. Political satire and cosmic parody combine in a web of espionage and action where the great questions of existence share space with the most profane humor, producing a novel that resists classification within the known genres, announcing a new one. Prequel to his immensely popular novel |Trance|, |Third World| promises, like its predecessor, a reading that is impossible to interrupt." -- Translation provided by NLSLa noche en la Zona M (A través del espejo)

The stakes of the game become clear when a tin can is tossed into the house with rules scrawled on it. Rules that only a madman-or worse-could have written. Rules that make no sense yet must be followed. One game. Seven players. Three rules. Game ends at dawn." -- Goodreads
