Add to basketLa esperada nueva novela de John Verdon, autor del best seller internacional Sé lo que estás pensando.La tensión ha ido en aumento en White River. El inminente primer aniversario de la muerte de un motorista negro por el disparo de un policía local inquieta a una población económicamente deprimida y racialmente polarizada.Se han pronunciado discursos incendiarios. Han empezado manifestaciones airadas. Ha habido casos aislados de incendios y saqueos.En medio de toda esta agitación, un francotirador mata a un agente de policía y la situación se descontrola. El fiscal de distrito del condado acude a Dave Gurney, detective de homicidios retirado del Departamento de Policía de Nueva York, con una extraña propuesta: quiere que Gurney lleve a cabo una investigación independiente del homicidio y que le informe directamente a él.Pese a tener algunos recelos sobre la singular oferta, Gurney termina por aceptar el encargo. Sus dudas se intensifican todavía más cuando conoce al tremendamente ambicioso jefe de policía local, en cuyos métodos agresivos y posiblemente ilegales podría hallarse el origen de la inquietud de los ciudadanos.La situación en White River se vuelve realmente tensa cuando se producen más muertes en lo que parece ser una escalada de venganzas. Sin embargo, cuando Gurney se pregunta por la verdadera naturaleza de todo este baño de sangre y se centra en aspectos peculiares de cada uno de los homicidios, el fiscal del distrito le ordena desvincularse de la investigación.Obsesionado con los indicios que no corroboran la versión oficial de los hechos, Gurney decide actuar por su cuenta. A pesar de la intensa oposición de la policía, así como de peligrosos fanáticos que acechan en las sombras, Gurney empieza a descubrir un asombroso entramado de engaños, entre ellos, lo que podría ser el plan de incriminación más diabólico jamás concebido.La respuesta a esta tenaz investigación se vuelve cada vez más violenta a medida que Gurney se acerca a la verdad que se oculta tras los crímenes. Al final, cuando logra desenmascarar al monstruo que maneja los hilos, Gurney descubre que en White River nada es lo que parece.

John Verdon trabajó en varias agencias publicitarias en Manhattan como director creativo hasta que, como su protagonista, se trasladó a vivir al norte del estado de Nueva York en un entorno rural. Sé lo que estás pensando fue su primera novela, un éxito mundial. En 2011, Roca Editorial publicó No abras los ojos, que también fue un éxito de crítica y ventas y a la que siguió Deja en paz al diablo. Su serie, que protagoniza el carismático detective retirado David Gurney, es ya un referente del género negro y criminal.
