Family Relationships in Contemporary Crime Fiction

Behind every crime novel there is a family. The author’s, the hero’s (or the heroine’s), and that of the villains themselves. Some families organise themselves into crime syndicates, controlling drugs, prostitution and illegal gambling. Others are simply dysfunctional, tearing themselves apart, fathers against sons, mothers against daughters, sisters against brothers, husbands against wives. Not everyone escapes alive. However, families do not exist in a vacuum. They are an important part of our society—for many, one of its most essential building blocks. That being said, society itself can impinge disastrously on personal relationships. War, that greatest of crimes, leaves children bereft of parents. Generations of children are stolen by cynical, racist administrators in supposedly civilised countries. Religion requires its followers to flourish and multiply, while abandoning all—including family—for their faith. All of these issues and more are explored in this collection of essays about crime fiction and the family.

Spanish Women Authors of Serial Crime Fiction

With its focus on recent detective series featuring female investigators, this collection analyzes the authors’ treatment of current social, political and economic problems in Spain and beyond, in addition to exploring interrelations between gender, globalization, the environment and technology. The contributions here reveal the varied ways in which the use of a series allows for a deeper consideration of such issues, in addition to permitting the more extensive development of the protagonist investigator and her reactions to, and methods of, dealing with personal and professional challenges of the twenty-first century. In these stories, the authors employ strategies that break with long-standing conventions, developing crime fiction in unexpected ways, incorporating elements of science fiction, the supernatural, and the historical novel, as well as varied geographical settings (small towns, provincial cities, and rural communities) beyond the urban environment, all of which contributes to the reinvigoration of the genre.

La trampa ucraniana

Cuando un mundo convulsionado y en cambio, que amenaza con intensificar la conflagración a gran escala, es relatado y reducido a la sempiterna lucha entre el bien y el mal, democracia contra autocracia, eso sólo puede significar una cosa: nos han hurtado el derecho a debatir, a discernir entre lo posible y lo inventado, entre hechos probados y propaganda. Como en otros tiempos, estigmatizadas, arrinconadas y censuradas las perspectivas pacifistas en nombre de conceptos como derechos humanos o libertad siempre utilizados según el caso y alineados con los intereses occidentales, se pretende imponer una única opción: la guerra. Una guerra, la de Ucrania, sembrada con mimo por quienes han e...

Las claves ocultas del 11 M

Han transcurrido dos décadas del atentado más sangriento de la historia de España y aún son muchas las preguntas sin respuesta.

Todavía se busca la verdad cuando están a punto de prescribir los delitos que cometieron tanto aquellos que participaron en la génesis y ejecución del 11M como los que pudieron intervenir en la presunta trama de encubrimiento. El objetivo de estos sería ocultar la verdadera factura de un atentado que sirvió a los supuestos aliados internacionales de España para sus propios intereses.

Personas que ocuparon puestos de responsabilidad en las más altas instancias del poder (nacional y extranjero), así como determinados actores secundarios cuyo testimonio nunca ha sido recogido, arrojan aquí algo de luz sobre este juego de humo y espejos que se puso en marcha justo después del estallido de las bombas.

Estas claves ocultas se descubren en esta obra excepcional, rigurosa y esclarecedora, con el objetivo de remover conciencias y aspirar a que se llegue al fondo de un gran abismo en el que, al menos hasta ahora, casi nadie ha estado dispuesto a asomarse. Y los que lo han hecho no están aquí para contarlo.
