Toda la sangre
Read moreTitle Toda la sangre Author Esquinca, Bernardo Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764723 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 320 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis I will never forget the sound of the drums of the shell collectors at night, while I tried to fall asleep in an old building on Donceles Street. It seemed like a sinister warning: beneath there is a city that beats and breathes, with gods who have not died; let us pay tribute to them, because one day that world will return... It is impossible to sleep next to the Templo Mayor without being influenced by those ancient stones, by the voices that whisper from the ruins during the early hours of the morning. My mind began to imagine a story to ward off the insomnia that this invocation to the ancient and mysterious side of the city caused me. I wanted to understand where we come from, and why it is difficult to reconcile ourselves with our pre-Hispanic origins; especially with the human sacrifices practiced by the Aztecs. This novel unites past and present in the same secret plot: the obsidian knives that ripped out hearts, the homeless people who swarm the streets of the Center, the colonial buildings with tezontle facades, the abandoned concrete buildings on the edge of large avenues, the sensationalist publications and their language of violence, the archaeological windows that tell of a lost splendor; a riddle whose main character is Mexico City, the place where any situation is possible. Archaeologists turned detectives, vagabonds dressed in human skins, secret tunnels and catacombs under the asphalt of the city, and a ritual murderer with an apocalyptic mission. All the Blood is a thriller about the universe of myths and the realm of the “real”; both are needed because they feed off each other. In the middle are we, puppets of forces that we sense and prefer to ignore. Until the sound of the drums reaches our door.

Juan y sus sombras
Read moreTitle Juan y sus sombras Author Alfonso Orejel Publisher SM México Imprint Gran Angular ISBN 9786072444577 Edition number 2 Publication year 2022 Pages 128 Format Printed THEMA Children’s, Teenage Synopsis The lives of Juan and his family go by peacefully in a large house in Sinaloa. However, their routines are altered by strange and inexplicable events. At first, they are insignificant and even go unnoticed, but they intensify until they create an overwhelming atmosphere. The story of this family, similar to many that inhabited northern Mexico in the 1960s and 1970s - told in a realistic style that describes their environment and customs - takes a turn that reveals the dark causes of these enigmatic events, which only the most daring temperaments will endure. foreign rights contact Estela Ruiz Torres E-mail estela.ruiz.torres@grupo-sm.com -
La octava plaga
Read moreTitle La octava plaga Author Esquinca, Bernardo Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078764488 Edition number 1 Publication year 2021 Pages 232 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis When the idea for The Eighth Plague began to float around in my head, one thing was clear: its protagonist would not be a conventional detective. I came from the world of journalism, where I trained as a writer for many years; the vicissitudes of reporters and the atmosphere of newsrooms were familiar to me, so it seemed like an act of congruence for Casasola to have that profession. However, I never worked in crime fiction, something I would have loved; having my journalist in charge of covering the police beat was a settling of scores: that, among other things, is what literature is for. I also knew that I wanted to mix genres: reality has never been enough for me to put together the stories I want to tell. Although it was a rarity in the tradition of detective novels, especially in the one made in Mexico, my novel would fuse a police plot with the supernatural. The Motel Killer, the fantastic entity that Casasola faces, behaves like a praying mantis: she decapitates her lovers during sexual intercourse. Finding out why she – and apparently the rest of humanity – acts like an insect is the subject of a mystery with apocalyptic overtones. But there was something else: Casasola had to look like me and, therefore, he would be an exile. He had to go from the culture section of the newspaper where he worked to the crime section: a universe unknown to both him and me. A path that we would travel and discover together. In the end, we had such a good time that The Eighth Plague became a saga. Mexico City is the ideal setting because, as we already know, in its streets and nooks and crannies the strange and chilling are part of the landscape.

Mañana ya no hablaremos de nada
Read moreTitle Mañana ya no hablaremos de nada Author Bizarro, Montse Publisher Almadía Ediciones, S. A. P. I. de C. V. Imprint Almadia ISBN 9786078851638 Edition number 1 Publication year 2024 Pages 192 Format Printed THEMA Fiction and Related items Synopsis The characters in this story cling to friendship in a world that has robbed them of their future, while inhabiting a vibrant Barcelona where drugs, violence and psychological challenges predominate. The protagonist faces the challenge of loving Lorena because, contrary to what she imagines, love at twenty is not a fairy tale, but an open wound that oozes jealousy, abandonment and frustration. With a dizzying pace and stark writing that challenges readers, Mañana ya no hablaremos de nada exposes how neurodiversity determines our perception of the world – the street, love, fun, self-concept – and relationships with others. Montse Bizarro shows us with skill, sensitivity and compassion that we live in an era in which psychological stability has become a precious commodity. And, in the face of the relentless self-exploitation of our time, she poses a crucial question: who has intact mental health? foreign rights contact Elizabet Osorio Osorio E-mail eosorio@corporativoventura.mx -
