Benedict M: The Queens of Crime

The Queens of Crime

A Novel

Juge Lombard Mystery

When two gruesome deaths occur weeks apart in the city of Tours, Lombard senses a malign coercive force behind both fatalities and finds himself challenging his own loyalties. From the author of the bestselling Follet Valley cosy crime series (over 300,000 copies sold in all formats) - a slickly plotted murder mystery set in France's Loire Valley.

When two gruesome deaths occur weeks apart in the city of Tours,&nbsp;Lombard senses a malign coercive force is behind both fatalities and finds himself challenging his own loyalties.

A Very French Corpse

Follow wild-haired Sybylla as she picks up her pen to try and write her way out of oppressive poverty in rural Australia, her father’s drinking debts, and obscene marriage proposals that simply cramp her style. Miles Franklin is Australia’s progressive literary star!Consider signing up for our 2026 Smith &amp; Taylor Subscription, and get My Brilliant Career alongside six other incredible titles as they publish this year (and at a big discount).My Brilliant Career (1901) is a landmark of Australian feminist literature and a true testament to the electric energy of teen girl ambition and woe. Drawing heavily on the author's own life, it offers a vivid and sometimes unsparing portrait of rural Australia in the late 19th century.<div>Sybylla Melvyn's father has squandered the family's fortunes through reckless speculation and descended into alcoholism, leaving them to scrape a living from a failing dairy farm. Sybylla is sharp, ambitious, and desperate for a life beyond her circumstances — she dreams of books, music, and becoming a writer. A spell with more prosperous relatives brings welcome relief and the romantic attention of wealthy neighbor Harold Beecham, but her fierce independence makes the dusty path to true love anything but smooth.</div><div> </div><div>Originally published under a name ambiguous enough to pass as male, her legacy lives on in Australia's most prestigious literary prize, the Miles Franklin Award, and its companion prize, the Stella, which celebrates fiction by women. While the new Netflix series drops August 2026, we also recommend Gillian Armstrong’s award-winning 1979 film adaptation.</div><div> </div><div>(Netflix sticker, included, though it easily peels off.)</div>

My Brilliant Career

Un thriller psicológico trepidante que nos recuerda que el pasado siempre vuelve para rendir cuentas cuando menos te lo esperas. El Palau de la Música acoge el estreno de la gira mundial de la reconocida Orquesta Filarmónica de Barcelona, dirigida por Víctor Alemany, el gran maestro contemporáneo de la música clásica. En plena actuación, la icónica claraboya modernista que preside la sala sinfónica estalla en mil pedazos y cae, a plomo, un hombre colgado del cuello con una soga. La explosión provoca el caos, y el pánico se apodera del público que llena el recinto. Este será solo el primero de una serie de hechos que tendrán lugar en las diferentes capitales donde la orquesta actuará. La encargada de investigarlos será la sargento Martina Roca, quien se adentrará en un laberinto en el que el lado más perverso de la condición humana atrapará al lector hasta la última página. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION A fast-paced psychological thriller that reminds us that the past always comes back to haunt us when we least expect it. The Palau de la Música hosts the premiere of the world tour of the renowned Barcelona Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Víctor Alemany, the great contemporary maestro of classical music. In the middle of the performance, the iconic modernist skylight that presides over the symphony hall explodes into a thousand pieces and a man hangs from the ceiling by a rope. The explosion causes chaos, and panic takes hold of the audience filling the venue. This is only the first in a series of events that will take place in the different capitals where the orchestra will perform. Sergeant Martina Roca is put in charge of investigating them, and she will delve into a labyrinth where the most perverse side of human nature will captivate the reader until the very last page.

No Dormiras

In the 19th century, artistic engagement with medieval architecture was closely connected to its academic study. Alongside art historians, architects and painters also played a key role in collecting, organizing, and communicating knowledge about architectural history. This publication shows that not only objective documentation, but above all the creative transformation of historical buildings was a particular strength of research in architectural history. Starting from a transnational comparison of architectural paintings, museum installations, garden spaces, and projects for the preservation of monuments, cross-genre strategies for dealing with historical designs are analyzed and re-evaluated as creative contributions to the emerging discipline of architectural history.<ul> <li>Transnational perspective on European images of the Middle Ages during the 19th century </li><li>Design-based research practice in the 19th century: Part of the current debate on research by design</li> <li>Artistic design presented as an instrument for developing and communicating knowledge </li></ul>

Mittelalter als Entwurf

Malén Denis's Lithium is a novel about what cannot be fully named or pinned down. "Language in this book," the author notes, "acts as a pharmakon-both poison and remedy-inviting the reader to navigate its ambivalence. I wrote it by following the golden thread of poetry and the echoes of psychoanalysis, letting the images lead rather than the plot." Lithium employs an especially potent, poetic language to convey love found and love lost (I'm waiting for news from you). It is a book blazing with bruised perceptions of the precarity of a life lived between jobs and between homes; it's a feverish work swinging from hope to despair, about trying drugs both prescribed and not, about migration, about cat-sitting, and about isolation, about the search for meaning and for happiness when both prove so elusive, and it is about summoning the strength to wrench oneself from indecision to action.

The voice that speaks to us in Lithium is that of a woman in her late twenties, compulsively determined to understand everything that's happening around her: a miscarriage, an absent lover, a bad drug trip, friends who come and go, horoscopes, life-as-a-trap, and hopes of an escape...

EL NUEVO FENÓMENO DEL THRILLER GÓTICO Una poderosa saga familiar. Un oscuro viaje al Mississipi y al Oviedo de finales del siglo XIX. «Atrapa e incomoda: las claves del thriller y el noir laten con fuerza en La sangre'. --Susana Martín Gijón «García Ballesteros nos enfrenta a nuestra naturaleza más oscura. Crea una trama perturbadora y asfixiante y la alimenta de todas aquellas pulsiones humanas que pueden sacar lo mejor y lo peor de cada uno'. --Óscar Reboiras, autor de El caso Salgueiro Nueva Orleans, 1897. Es la popular noche de Mardi Gras, y Alexander Le Bois, heredero de una de las familias más importantes de la ciudad, empieza a manifestar unos extraños síntomas durante el gran baile celebrado en Ópera Francesa. Isabella, su joven esposa nacida en Cuba y criada en Oviedo, busca desesperadamente ayuda y solo encuentra a Markus, un médico negro sin mucho crédito ni acceso a la medicina reservada a los blancos. Cuando la misteriosa dolencia de Alexandre empieza a difundirse sin piedad por Nueva Orleans, el inspector Morgan De Sanctis y el doctor Schmidt, responsable del control de epidemias, sospechan que el mal no afecta a todos por igual. Pero nadie imagina que tras su avance se oculta una verdad más oscura y aterradora que cualquier enfermedad. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION THE NEW PHENOMENON IN GOTHIC THRILLERS A powerful family saga. A dark journey to Mississippi and Oviedo at the end of the 19th century. "García Ballesteros makes us confront our darkest beings. He creates a disturbing, suffocating plot and feeds it with all those human impulses capable of bringing out the best and worst in each of us." --Óscar Reboiras, author of El caso Salgueiro New Orleans, 1897. It is the popular night of Mardi Gras, and Alexander Le Bois, heir to one of the most important families in the city, begins to show strange symptoms during the grand ball held at the French Opera. Isabella, his young wife born in Cuba and raised in Oviedo, desperately seeks help and finds only Markus, a black doctor with little credibility or access to medicine reserved for whites. When Alexandre's mysterious illness begins to spread mercilessly throughout New Orleans, Inspector Morgan De Sanctis and Dr. Schmidt, responsible for controlling epidemics, suspect that the disease does not affect everyone equally. But no one imagines that behind its spread lies a truth darker and more terrifying than any disease.
