Acerca de esta escucha
Dive into the heart of a war-torn land where beauty and brutality collide in Sketches from the Periphery, a stunning debut novel and international best-seller by MP Summers. Set against the volatile backdrop of Darfur in 2005, this gripping tale follows Alexander Barr, a young American contractor thrust into the chaos of the African Union Peacekeeping Mission. At just twenty-two, Alex trades college textbooks for the unforgiving desert, where every step reveals a world of resilience, violence, and haunting mystery.
From the dusty streets of El Fasher to the shadowed ridges of the Wana Hills, Summers paints a vivid portrait of a region pulsing with life and conflict. Meet Tariq, a battle-scarred rebel with secrets etched into his soul; Henri, a ruthlessly efficient contractor, and Cassandra, a fearless journalist whose pursuit of truth might cost her everything. Together, they navigate a landscape where ancient mountains loom over blood-soaked sands, and hope flickers amid despair.

Investigative journalist, Billy Daniels, never expected his interview with Riley, a delightful ten-year-old, would result in the overdose of her homeless single mother and Riley’s disappearance. She was last seen next to their broken-down 1996 Impala parked in a DC alley . . . holding her mother’s body. Billy searches for Riley only to discover her life is in mortal danger. A Russian covert operation—one that could shake the nation to its core—is headquartered in Washington. Agent Nika Rolinska, a daring and skilled assassin, has orders to tie up loose ends.

Everyone adores Miss May, except the guilty. In a small town where neighbors know each other, lawn chairs come out in the spring; if you sit around chatting long enough, someone brings you pie; and there are still skeletons in every closet. Luckily for Pine Grove, Miss May has a nose for crime. The body was found face-down in the orchard.
