| Reviews | “Blunt and irreverent, Malart will lead the investigation in his peculiar style, with a blend of intuition and observation reminiscent of Sherlock Holmes, acting on his own, dragging his partners behind him or butting heads with them the way he does with the rest of the world -a world he doesn’t understand, and that feels unreal to him.” Sergi Lozano, La Vanguardia Compared to classics of the genre like Vázquez Montalbán or Toni Hill, and international ones, such as Jo Nesbo, Philip Kerr, the Icelandic Indridason or the French Pierre Lemaitre. Malart brings the Elements trilogy to a close. It is a novel unlike any other, with an unusual plot in which mind games are particularly relevant. Sáinz de la Maza masterfully closes the circle of injustice and infamy with a new and sublime twist. |
