Overview

Un asesino en serie obsesionado con los crímenes de la literatura.
Una profesora en el centro de una investigación.
Una experiencia de lectura sin tregua.

VUELVE ÁNGELA BANZAS
LA VOZ DEL THRILLER GALLEGO
 
Un asesino envuelto en sombras, una rosa, una cadena de espinas. Un bosque flotante donde el miedo oculta terribles secretos.

Isla de Cortegada, 1910. El hallazgo del cadáver de una niña el día de la matanza genera gran conmoción entre los habitantes de la ría por las circunstancias y la atrocidad del crimen. Un culpable, el poeta Guillermo de Foz. Una condena, la muerte a garrote.

Monasterio de Armenteira, Pontevedra, 2002. Las obras de restauración del claustro sacan a la luz un cuaderno inédito con la confesión del escritor maldito Guillermo de Foz. Antía Fontán, profesora de Literatura en La Sorbona, viajará a Galicia para llevar a cabo un estudio sobre este hallazgo. Lo que desconoce es que su estancia trascenderá lo profesional. Allí descubrirá una historia de amor y muerte, siniestros intereses y se verá envuelta en una serie de asesinatos perpetrados por una mente criminal que sigue el modus operandi de los ángeles caídos de la literatura. El apodado Asesino de la Rosa parece tener un solo destinatario: ella.

Después del éxito de El silencio de las olas y La conjura de la niebla, la escritora Ángela Banzas despliega su virtuosismo narrativo y nos ofrece un rompecabezas en el que la tensión aumenta con cada página. La sombra de la rosa es una novela ágil, llena de resonancias y golpes de efecto, que explora la raíz del mal y nos conecta con el lado oscuro del amor y el más cruento de la literatura universal. Sombras, rosas y espinas.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A serial killer obsessed with literary crimes.
A professor at the center of an investigation.
A relentless reading experience.

ÁNGELA BANZAS IS BACK
THE VOICE OF THE GALICIAN THRILLER
 
A killer wrapped in shadow, a rose, a chain of thorns. A floating forest where fear conceals terrible secrets.

Cortegada Island, 1910. The discovery of young girl’s body at the Festival of the Slaughter has residents in an uproar, especially given the circumstances and atrocity of the crime. The guilty party: poet Guillermo de Foz. The sentence: death by garrote.

Armenteira Monastery, Pontevedra, 2002.  Restoration work in the cloister unearths a previously unknown notebook containing de Foz’s confession. Antía Fontán, a professor of literature at the Sorbonne, travels to Galicia to examine the finding. Little does she know that what she discovers there will go beyond the professional, revealing a story of love, death and sinister interests. Fontán soon finds herself connected to a series of murders perpetrated by a killer who follows the modus operandi of literature’s fallen angels. And the so-called Rose Killer seems to have only one audience in mind: her.

Following the success of El silencio de las olas [The Silence of the Waves] and La conjura de la niebla [The Conjure of the Mist], Ángela Banzas puts her narrative talents on full display in this mystery that grows more tense with every page. La sombra de la rosa [The Shadow of the Rose] is a nimbly written novel, full of repercussions and dramatic effects, that explores the roots of evil, connecting us with the dark side of love and the bloodiest episodes in world literature. Shadows, roses and thorns.
