The North Face of the Heart

De: Dolores Redondo, Michael Meigs - translator

Narrado por: Emma Gregory

In a propulsive thriller by the #1 internationally bestselling author of The Baztán Trilogy, a female detective follows a psychopathic killer into the eye of a storm.

Amaia Salazar, a young detective from the north of Spain, has joined a group of trainees at the FBI Academy in Virginia. Haunted by her past and having already tracked down a predator on her own, Amaia is no typical rookie. And this is no ordinary student lecture at Quantico. FBI agent Aloisius Dupree is already well acquainted with Amaia’s skills, her intuition, and her ability to understand evil. He now needs her help in hunting an elusive serial killer dubbed “the Composer,” and in solving another case that’s been following him his whole life.

From New Jersey to Oklahoma to Texas, the Composer’s victims are entire families annihilated in the chaos of natural disasters, their bodies posed with chilling purpose amid the ruins. Dupree and Amaia follow his trail to New Orleans. The clock is ticking. It’s the eve of the worst hurricane in the city’s history. But a troubling call from Amaia’s aunt back home awakens in Amaia the ghosts from her childhood and sends her down a path as dark as that of the coming storm.

Could not put it down!!

Wow! This one fully captivated me. I had AirPods in almost every waking moment and I’m sad now that it’s over! If you’re on the fence don’t wait another minute!

Impeccable narration

This is a very well written and engaging book. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to it and was pleasantly surprised with the highly talented narrator. The book combines crime investigation, murder, and psychology bordering at times on the occult. It’s a rich mixture of storylines that might be too much for some but I enjoyed it. Also, this book had to be translated from Spanish and the translation is excellent.

Good story with awesome narration.

The narrator is amazing!! I really felt all the emotions on the page in her voice.

My New Favorite author
