Un thriller histórico lleno de giros de guión y golpes de martillo. Una persecución endemoniada por todo el norte de EE.UU. entre dos mujeres: solo puede quedar una. Entre Stephen King y Jane Austen, pero con la inconfundible pluma adictiva de Michael McDowell.

Cuando en 1871 la intrépida y arruinada Philomela Drax recibe una carta de su abuelo en la que le confiesa temer por su vida a causa de una familia sin escrúpulos, los Slape, no duda en acudir en su ayuda.

Pero el tiempo apremia porque Katie, líder del clan, una joven despiadada con el don de la clarividencia y una notable habilidad criminal con el martillo, está a punto de lograr su objetivo.

Comienza entonces una persecución desenfrenada, desde las polvorientas calles de un pueblo de Nueva Jersey hasta las relucientes aceras de Saratoga, pasando por los muelles de Nueva York. Philo sabe que es un duelo a muerte. Pero lleva demasiado tiempo huyendo: ha llegado el momento de la venganza.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A historical thriller full of plot twists and hammer blows. A demonic chase across the northern United States between two women: only one can remain. Between Stephen King and Jane Austen, but with the unmistakable addictive pen of Michael McDowell.

When in 1871 the intrepid and ruined Philomela Drax receives a letter from her grandfather in which he confesses to fearing for his life because of an unscrupulous family, the Slapes, she does not hesitate to come to his aid.

But time is running out because Katie, the leader of the clan, a ruthless young woman with the gift of clairvoyance and a notable criminal skill with the hammer, is about to achieve her goal.

Thus begins a frantic chase, from the dusty streets of a New Jersey town to the gleaming sidewalks of Saratoga, passing through the docks of New York. Philo knows it is a duel to the death. But she has been running for too long: the time for revenge has come.

I love this book
Format: Paperback
I love this book. Some of the incidents took place in my home town of Jonesboro, LA. I knew many of the men (and women) who risked their lives to take a stand for racial equality. CORE's Jonesboro Freedom House (although it is vacant) still stands today, and its structure has not changed. This house, along with many of the pictures of individuals, are shown between pages 107 & 108 of the book. I shared this information with some of my students. They were quite surprised that our small town was a part of History!

Funny, Interesting, Informative!
Format: Paperback
I hiked the PCT in 2016 and I wish this had been available then. There are a lot of misconceptions about the desert section of the PCT (first 700ish miles) being flat, monotonous, and unpleasant. Even once you are out on the trail hiking through varied terrain, it is hard to shake off the "desert mentality" that comes from listening to those misconceptions. One of the reasons I love this book is because of how well the author paints an accurate picture of the beauty and constantly changing scenery the desert has to offer. All the information you would expect from a guide book is here, including mileage, water sources, elevation, etc. There are also a TON of photos that will make you question why you spend anytime indoors. I mean this literally. This book is worth buying for pictures of the Sierra sections alone. The damn near turn by turn navigation descriptions of each section are also a good reason for your purchase. The author is funny. I wanted to say that in a funny way but she's funny enough so if you want to chuckle, wait for the book. Her passion for the PCT seeps through her writing and it is impossible not to feel equally enthusiastic. On a multi-day (or multi-month) hike, that enthusiasm is almost as important as your next water source...except not..but ALMOST.

Anyone Can Do It!
Format: Paperback
My husband and I are hiking the PCT and this book has come in very helpful. We especially appreciate the areas we can park at the beginning and end of each section. It is making the trail very doable for two older people who could never make it otherwise. I tear out the section, make a copy and highlight some of the details for example a gate at 4.5 miles. It helps encourage us to continue when we know about how far we have left to go. Also the little map showing elevation gain and lost. The last 17 mile trip we did last week was predominantly up hill. Knowing that ahead of time prepares us mentally for a difficult hike. Our next section is 10 miles downhill so we will do that as a day hike and bring the dog. For anyone who thinks they can't do the PCT this is the perfect book. If I can do it Anyone Can Do It!

Best Section Books out there!
Format: Paperback
I plan to section hike the PCT in mostly small sections. Previous section books I'd found were called "PCT Section Hiking" but really were if you just wanted to get your feet on the PCT. THIS series of books is more than I could have hoped for and makes it so easy! I had previously spent hours and hours planning small sections, researching where to leave my car, which wilderness, what permits were needed, and on and on. This series (all different authors, but organized the same way, wonderful!) provides all the need to know info, plus very detailed commentary on each segment/leg. So grateful! So good!

Excellent resource for anyone hiking the PCT
Format: Paperback
I bought this for my brother who will be hiking the PCT for a second time this summer. He has read many books on the PCT and he said this book is an excellent resource for anyone thinking about or hiking, planning to return to, the PCT. Very easy to follow and everything you need to know as you plan your hike.
