Jericó, 2010. Rania, una joven y humilde chica de padre palestino y madre americana, lleva una plácida existencia, disfruta del amor puro de Abdul y sueña con un futuro junto a él. Pero un brutal suceso rompe su vida.
David Ackermann, capitán del ejército israelí, se encuentra en una situación de emergencia. Uno de sus hombres ha huido y se dirige a Jericó armado, borracho y ciego de ira. Cuando lo localiza se enfrenta a una inesperada y dramática decisión.
Max es un exitoso trader que vive al límite en Nueva York junto a sus amigos y su novia, Debra Williams, famosa reportera. Recibe la llamada del financiero más poderoso de Wall Street; le propone dirigir un nuevo fondo de inversión. Es la oportunidad de su vida, que acepta sin dudar. Todo es dinero, lujo y derroche a su alrededor. Pero nada volverá a ser igual.
Javier Bernal construye un apasionante thriller internacional con matices políticos, financieros y religiosos. Un universo desde el que analiza la actitud de los hombres más influyentes de Wall Street y las luchas de poder, los servicios secretos, el Mossad y la manipulación de la opinión pública. Una obra imprescindible, reflexiva, que nos habla de la soledad, de la compasión y del amor como vía de escape a la barbarie. Y que nos desvela la verdadera cara del mundo actual.
Con la contundencia de Grisham, el suspense de Patterson y el talento de Le Carré, Bernal inicia la senda del thriller político en España de forma brillante. Un debut literario con alma de best seller.
Reseñas:
«Una novela sobre el Wall Street más oscuro. (...) Un contraste entre el mundo excesivo de Manhattan y unos escenarios precarios de Jericó».
La Vanguardia
«Javier Bernal consigue implicar al lector en una trama magnética, trepidante y con grandes dosis de acción. Imprescindible para los amantes del buen thriller».
María Alonso, Blog De todo un poco
«La trama política y el terrorismo islámico se convierten en las claves de esta historia, cuyo escenario se mueve entre el conflicto armado palestino y el vitalismo moderno de la urbe neoyorquina».
20 minutos
«Una mujer entre dos fuegos, doblegada por el terrorismo y asediada por aquellos que lo persiguen».
Periodistadigital.com
«Banqueros sin escrúpulos, el vértigo de Wall Street, el conflicto palestino y las artimañas de los servicios secretos son algunos de los elementos que se trenzan en El enigma de Rania Roberts».
El Confidencial
«Bernal conduce con firmeza una trama donde el suspense político y financiero no impide que se escurran por sus páginas el amor y la soledad».
Expansión
«El autor teje una trama con tres protagonistas que son los hilos conductores de una compleja y acertada historia de suspense y acción que sitúa a los personajes en situaciones límite».
Blog Me gustan los libros
«Los personajes encarnan a directivos sin escrúpulos y cínicos que saben mover los hilos de los medios de comunicación (...) Pero también hay espacio para personajes honestos, periodistas rigurosos o militares con principios».
Economiadigital
«Lo que resulta llamativo es que el autor de este suspense sea un alto directivo de un gran banco español y haya decidido situar su opera prima en una jungla en la que todo se mide en bonus por millones de dólares (...) Ha construido un héroe de película. Una especie de Gary Cooper en forma de capitán del Ejército israelí metido a detective en los lujosos ambientes de Nueva York».
