"Scott Brick narrates this addictive audiobook, which blends dark humor and thrills... Brick skillfully builds tension and suspense, drawing the listener into the investigation alongside the main characters."- AudioFile Magazine
"...Scott Brick's sublime performance deserves to be savored."- Library Journal
Fan favorite and acclaimed narrator Scott Brick delivers an electrifying performance of this #1 international award-winning bestseller and thriller that has taken the world by storm.

Introducing Antonia Scott—the most compelling and original detective since Lisbeth Salander—in Juan Gómez-Jurado's Red Queen, the #1 international award-winning bestseller & thriller that has taken the world by storm.
Antonia Scott—the daughter of a British diplomat and a Spanish mother—has a gifted forensic mind, whose ability to reconstruct crimes and solve baffling murders is legendary. But after a personal trauma, she's refused to continue her work or even leave her apartment.
Jon Gutierrez, a police officer in Bilbao—disgraced, suspended, and about to face criminal charges—is offered a chance to salvage his career by a secretive organization that works in the shadows to direct criminal investigations of a highly sensitive nature. All he has to do is succeed where many others have failed: Convince a recalcitrant Antonia to come out of her self-imposed retirement, protecting her and helping her investigate a new, terrifying case.
The case is a macabre, ritualistic murder—a teen-aged boy from a wealthy family whose body was found without a drop of blood left in it. But the murder is just the start. A high-ranking executive and daughter of one of the richest men in Spain is kidnapped, a crime which is tied to the previous murder. Behind them both is a hidden mastermind with even more sinister plans. And the only person with a chance to see the connections, solve the crimes and successfully match wits with the killer before tragedy strikes again...is Antonia Scott.
A Macmillan Audio production from Minotaur Books.

     January 9, 2023
     At the start of this nail-biting thriller, the first in a trilogy, Spanish author Gómez-Jurado (The Traitor’s Emblem) hooks the reader with the tantalizing opening sentence: “Antonia Scott allows herself to think of suicide no more than three minutes a day.” Antonia is a genius, whose off-the-charts intelligence and analytical skills have made her a valued member of a covert organization that handles sensitive criminal investigations. Following the near-fatal shooting of her beloved husband, which has left him in a coma and for which she blames herself, Antonia has become a recluse in her Madrid home. But she’s drawn back into the fray by the kidnapping of Carla Ortiz, a Spanish bank executive and “heiress to the richest man in the world.” Antonia’s handler partners her with disgraced police inspector Jon Gutiérrez, and together they pursue the possibility that Carla’s abduction is linked to the grisly murder of a young boy, whose corpse was drained of its blood. Frequent and often startling plot twists help compensate for a few contrivances that lessen interest toward the end. Lisbeth Salander devotees will find much to like. Agent: Tom Colchie, Colchie Agency.

     Internationally best-selling Spanish author G�mez-Jurado's (The Traitor's Emblem) gripping thriller, featuring two fascinating protagonists, will tempt listeners to increase the narration speed--but narrator Scott Brick's sublime performance deserves to be savored. Bilbao police officer Jon Gutierrez, facing criminal charges for planting evidence on a suspect, can wipe the slate clean by assisting an elite EU organization that quietly investigates sensitive crimes. His first task--one that has thwarted many--is to convince brilliant detective Antonia Scott, a near recluse after a devastating personal trauma, to come back to work to help solve the murder of a teenage boy from a prominent family. Antonia seems to find the quirky Jon a kindred spirit, and the two set out to stop what has grown into a series of grisly crimes. While Brick expertly captures the high-stakes intensity of their investigation, he slows down to allow listeners to appreciate G�mez-Jurado's intriguing characters and the tentative friendship that develops between them. VERDICT Brick's performance brings out the warmth, as well as the drama, in this witty thriller, the first in G�mez-Jurado's trilogy featuring a Lisbeth Salander-like character paired with a wonderfully self-deprecating cop. Libraries should expect significant demand, especially with a TV series in the works.--Beth Farrell
