"Sobre la Academia Ellingham debe de pesar una maldición. Ya han muerto tres personas. Una, víctima de una broma que salió mal o de un asesinato. Otra, por una fatalidad. Y ahora, un accidente en Burlington se ha cobrado una nueva vida. Y todo justo en el momento de mayor triunfo de Stevie Bell…
Sabe quién es Atentamente Perverso. Lo ha resuelto. El crimen del siglo.
Al menos, eso cree. Con esta nueva tragedia, es difícil concentrarse en el pasado. No solo ha muerto una persona en la ciudad, sino que además David ha desaparecido por propia voluntad y está tramando algo. Stevie está segura de que de alguna manera —de alguna manera— todo guarda relación. Las tres muertes del presente. Las muertes del pasado. La desaparición de Alice Ellingham y la desaparición de David Eastman. En algún lugar de este mundo de enigmas y acertijos deben encontrarse las respuestas.
Después sobreviene otro imprevisto cuando una gigantesca tormenta de nieve se cierne sobre Vermont. La Academia Ellingham es evacuada. Obviamente, es el momento de que Stevie Bell haga una tontería. Es el momento de quedarse en la montaña y enfrentarse a la tormenta… y a un asesinato.
En la estimulante conclusión de la trilogía El Caso Vermont, la escritora Maureen Johnson, líder de ventas del New York Times, trenza con mano experta los dos hilos narrativos y hace estallar un explosivo final para todos los que hemos recorrido la Academia Ellingham."

"This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
The people have revolted. The guards are dead. The city has fallen.
When the gangs overtake the city of Detroit, killing the city officials and the guards, Kallis finds herself in her worst nightmare.
Fast-forward three years and her life is still a living hell. It's been a year since she was sold last, but Henry, her new owner and one of the gang's leaders, is anything but kind. She walks on eggshells, worried she'll do something wrong.
She's wanted out, to escape Detroit—not that she would have attempted to escape. She's certain getting caught would result in something far worse.
But when Henry tells her he's taking her out of the city, she's not sure if that's a good thing. Leaving with him?
There's no choice to be made though because an attack sends them charging out of the city ahead of schedule.
Barely making it out alive was bad enough, but then they run into another snag. They have to go back and make right on an agreement Henry had made when he bought her.
Will they survive a second time around? And what will Henry do to make things right with Kallis after everything he's done?
Sabotage (The Hexon Code, Book 7) is a tense, hair-raising wild ride of emotions.
Not for all readers."
"In that extraordinary time between childhood and adulthood are those years that most parents dread; The Teenage Years. Hormones rage, personalities can become belligerent, lives are lived in partial secrecy as their brains undergo re-wiring and their bodies shoot out in all sorts of places.
How then to find stories they can engage with? There's an easy answer. The same way we as adults engage. Great stories told by great authors.
In this volume we can tick both boxes with the bonus that the stories are actually about them.
Our classic authors including Marjorie Bowen, Gustav Meyrink, Kenneth Grahame, Thomas Hardy and many others bring all facets of this genre into needle-sharp focus.
