![]() ![]() Author: Katsu Alma Publisher: Newton Compton Editori 1846. Dopo aver viaggiato per settimane verso Ovest, in direzione della California, un gruppo di pionieri si trova di fronte a un bivio. Per il leader della spedizione, George Donner, è il momento di fare una scelta. Davanti a lui, infatti, due strade che conducono alla stessa destinazione. Una è già nota come una pista sicura, ma dell'altra, ancora sconosciuta, si vocifera che potrebbe essere più corta. La decisione di Donner avrà ripercussioni sulle vite di tutti coloro che sono in viaggio con lui. Il caldo cocente del deserto sta per lasciare il posto a venti pungenti e a un freddo acuto in grado di congelare il bestiame. Spinti verso la follia dalla fatica e dalle privazioni, i membri del gruppo dovranno lottare per la sopravvivenza. Mentre i bambini cominciano misteriosamente a scomparire. Ma la minaccia più pericolosa che i pionieri dovranno affrontare non è la furia della natura, bensì qualcosa di più primitivo e feroce che si sta risvegliando. € 12,00

![]() ![]() Author: Katsu Alma Publisher: Longanesi Lanny è una donna bellissima, sensuale, appassionata... E ha oltre duecento anni. Lanny è un'immortale, ma la sua vita eterna le ha chiesto un sacrificio molto alto. Troppo alto. E costretta a fuggire e a nascondersi di continuo, perché l'uomo che le ha donato l'immortalità, il potente e spietato Adair, vuole tenerla avvinta a sé, anche se lei ha trovato un altro uomo, e con lui un nuovo, profondo legame che le dà forza in una quotidianità finalmente "normale" e condivisa. Adair ha più di mille anni, ma nella sua lunghissima vita non ha mai incontrato una donna come Lanny. E ora che si è liberato dalla cella in cui lei l'ha rinchiuso per più di un secolo, Adair deve scegliere: ascoltare la voce dell'odio e della vendetta, che gli impone di scovare Lanny e ucciderla dopo orribili sevizie? Oppure cedere a una voce più profonda e autentica, che non sentiva da secoli: quella dell'amore? L'eros può rendere possibile l'impossibile, ma maggiore è la sua forza, più alto il prezzo da pagare... Erotismo e suspense si mescolano in una storia di passione e perdita, tradimento e redenzione. € 19,90

![]() ![]() Author: Katsu Alma Publisher: Gallery Books The final installment in the “mesmerizing” (Booklist, starred review) and addictive trilogy—find out who truly holds the key to Lanny’s heart and whether she’ll be reunited with her beloved in this gripping supernatural tale of magic, lust, and longing. Lanore McIlvrae has been on the run from Adair for hundreds of years, dismayed by his mysterious powers and afraid of his violent—even murderous—temper. She betrayed Adair’s trust and imprisoned him behind a stone wall to save Jonathan, the love of her life. When Adair was freed 200 years later, she was sure that he would find her and make her existence a living hell. But things turned out far different than she’d imagined.
Four years later, Lanore has tracked Adair to his mystical island home, where he has been living in self-imposed exile, to ask for a favor. She wants Adair to send her to the hereafter so she may beg the Queen of the Underworld to release Jonathan, whom she has been keeping as her consort. Will Lanore honor her promise to Adair to return? Or is her intention to reunite with Jonathan at any cost?
Of all the forces of the universe, the most mysterious, confounding, and humbling is the power of love. The epic story of love and loss, magic and destiny that began with The Taker and sparked a chase around the world in The Reckoning comes to a surprising conclusion with The Descent. € 14,30

![]() ![]() Author: Katsu Alma Publisher: Longanesi E un inverno che non dà scampo quello che avvolge nel gelo e nella neve il piccolo paese di St. Andrew, nel Maine, a pochi chilometri dal confine canadese. E notte e la foresta ghiacciata pare sussurrare nell'oscurità. Luke, giovane medico di turno al pronto soccorso, si ritrova davanti una ragazza dall'apparente età di diciannove anni e dalla bellezza eterea e struggente. E atterrita e chiusa nel silenzio, ma i suoi occhi sembrano gridare. Ha appena ucciso un uomo, abbandonandone il cadavere nel bosco. Si chiama Lanny e, con voce appena udibile, sostiene di aver ucciso quell'uomo perché era stato lui a chiederglielo. Prega Luke di aiutarla a scappare. Quando il dottore rifiuta, Lanny afferra un bisturi e si squarcia il petto nudo. Quello che succede dopo cambierà le loro vite per sempre. Luke, sconvolto, accetta di aiutarla a scappare oltre confine. E durante la fuga, lei gli rivela il proprio passato. Lanny è immortale e ha più di duecento anni. Il suo è il racconto di una donna travolta da un amore torbido, appassionato e mai ricambiato abbastanza. E il racconto di un uomo ossessionato dalla bellezza e dal bisogno oscuro di possederla, un uomo che trasforma la passione fisica in uno strumento di dominio. E il racconto del terribile prezzo da pagare in cambio della vita eterna. € 17,60

![]() ![]() Author: Katsu Alma Publisher: Simon & Schuster True love can last an eternity . . . but immortality comes at a price. . . . On the midnight shift at a hospital in rural Maine, Dr. Luke Findley is expecting another quiet evening of frostbite and the occasional domestic dispute. But the minute Lanore McIlvrae—Lanny—walks into his ER, she changes his life forever. A mysterious woman with a past and plenty of dark secrets, Lanny is unlike anyone Luke has ever met. He is inexplicably drawn to her . . . despite the fact that she is a murder suspect with a police escort. And as she begins to tell her story, a story of enduring love and consummate betrayal that transcends time and mortality, Luke finds himself utterly captivated. Her impassioned account begins at the turn of the nineteenth century in the same small town of St. Andrew, Maine, back when it was a Puritan settlement. Consumed as a child by her love for the son of the town's founder, Lanny will do anything to be with him forever. But the price she pays is steep—an immortal bond that chains her to a terrible fate for all eternity. And now, two centuries later, the key to her healing and her salvation lies with Dr. Luke Findley. Part historical novel, part supernatural page-turner, The Taker is an unforgettable tale about the power of unrequited love not only to elevate and sustain, but also to blind and ultimately destroy, and how each of us is responsible for finding our own path to redemption. € 18,90
