He has published

'La Nena'

(Alfaguara), the third part of a series that he inaugurated with

'La novia gitana'

and

'La red roja'.

We know that he is from Madrid and that the crime novel scares him. Little more. Okay, yes. Now we also know what his relationship with books is like in the summer. Here are his reflections. And your recommendations.

"When I was a child there was a special day before we went on vacation. A day that my sisters and I waited almost like Three Kings Day, the day of summer books. Our father would take us to the bookstore and let us choose two books each. There were three of us, so we took six novels with us, our reading for the long month of August on the beach. We coordinated to take everything we wanted: police, romantic, serious ... I continue to visit to the bookstore every summer before I travel. I'm sure that

Carmen Mola's latest,

'La Nena', would have been one of the first to be chosen: a crime thriller, addictive, bloody, a third part of a saga of which there is a lot of talk. Impossible to be wrong, come on.

What others would I take?

'La forastera',

by

Olga Merino

(Alfaguara).

A good friend recommended it to me and I already have it in my suitcase for the beach.

He has told me that it is a haunting portrait of the rural world in brilliant prose.

I trust my friend, so I'll read it between baths.

'The good father',

by

Santiago Díaz

(Penguin Random House).

The publisher sent it to me to write a phrase for the girdle and I was happy.

I love his novels, so black and that they always answer the moral questions that we have all asked ourselves.

'Specie',

by

Susana Martín Gijón

(Alfaguara) Another one that I read before it was published.

The second installment of Inspector Camino, a police thriller in Seville.

Thrilling.

'Pleamar',

by

Antonio Mercero

(Alfaguara).

The title is ideal to read looking at the sea.

A very current story, of murders, youtubers and influencers ...

'Panza de burro',

by

Andrea Abreu

(Barrett).

I have not read it, but in the networks and friends speak well of it.

In any case, on the way back from the beach I'll tell you what I think ...

All this if you have already read 'The gypsy bride' and 'The Purple Network', of course.

Happy summer!"
