You remember Hannibal Lecter: gentleman, genius, cannibal. Seven years have passed since Dr. Lecter escaped from custody. And for seven years he's been at large, free to savor the scents, the essences, of an unguarded world. But intruders have entered Dr. Lecter's world, piercing his new identity, sensing the evil that surrounds him. For the multimillionaire Hannibal left maimed, for a corrupt Italian policeman, and for FBI agent Clarice Starling, who once stood before Lecter and who has never been the same, the final hunt for Hannibal Lecter has begun. All of them, in their separate ways,...

De todos modos, su corazón le aconsejaba apoyarse en sus anchos hombros, aunque fuera por una sola vez. Y entonces, se enamoró de él perdidamente.

A partir de ese momento nos adentramos en una región sin perfiles en que lo real se confunde con lo imaginado, el sueño con...

Este viaje lo hizo Turcios para incorporarse a las fuerzas militares que organizaba en Nicaragua el general Antonio Monterroso por ordenes de...
