One day, from the window of the laundry room, Sara sees the body of a woman in the house of her neighbours, Paco and Maruja. Days before, the couple had been arguing and since then it seems that Maruja has been swallowed up by the earth. The young people in the building look for a way to investigate the possible murder and organise themselves to find some clues. But it is not easy, although they persist in their desire to solve the mystery of their neighbour’s disappearance.

Born in Oliva (Valencia) on Christmas Eve 1977, and where she currently lives, Dolores Ferrer graduated in Biology from the University of Valencia in 2000. Despite writing poetry and short stories since she was a child and occasionally participating in literary competitions in both genres, it was not until 2006 that she came into contact with other writers at the Aula de Escritores, located in the Gracia neighborhood in Barcelona, and where an active interaction took place that propelled her as a writer. From that moment on, her literary production increased, as did its quality. In 2008 she published her first novel, but it was not until 2012 when Elclubdelosinvisibleswas published for the first time by Edebé. Currently, she combines her work as a secondary school teacher with her passion for writing. Te veo is the second novel she has published with Edebé.

A LINEAGE OF ADMIRABLE GIFTED WOMEN, ON A REMOTE MYSTERIOUS ISLAND FULL OF HISTORY AND LEGENDS AND THE LOVE FOR LAND, NATURE AND ARTS IS THE BACKGROUND OF A STORY SET ON 19 th CENTURY.

The night her mother died, Elora saw a flash of purple lightning from the window of the Saint-Étienne hospital. She instantly understood that the flash was her mother’s flame, recently freed from the world. And at the same time, she saw a picture appear on the glass fogged up by the winter cold: a heart. The fact is that Elora, like her mother before her, like her grandmother, with whom she must now live, possesses a gift that makes her special, intuitive, wise... Like so many women from other times and places, grandmother and granddaughter will have to survive together and be strong. And Elora will discover more than a secret in her new home, on the strange Île Cormoran, the island of the cormorants.

Everyone knows who Don Nicolás Medina, the family boss, is. Many are afraid of him. In the neighbourhood, in the city, everyone knows him. Many things are said about him and nobody knows which are true and which are not. But this story is not about him, but about three young members of the Medina clan. Angel Medina, sixteen, his favorite grandson, eager to make a place for himself in the family hierarchy; his little sister Jessica Medina, Jess, always serious, watching everything; and his cousin Nico, the same age as Jess, probably the only one the girl listens to, her confidant. No one can choose the family of origin, it is destiny. But can we change our destiny?

How do we show ourselves to others, how do others see us, how are we with ourselves? This harsh realist novel is a fiction masterfully created by Care Santos, but it could perfectly be a journalistic investigation on a true event, one of those that, when you hear it on the TV or radio, shake your conscience and makes you wonder how could something like this has happened? How could someone so young commit such an atrocity? Many people may think that there are some things that are better ignored. But then, how can we prevent that they happen again? Do you dare to face your third mask? Each chapter of this book introduces you to a different character from Diana’s environment. Each one speaks in first person about Diana and their relationship with her. In the first part, people from her everyday life speak; in the second part, it is the turn of the ones she loved; in the third part, Diana herself narrates the story.

A HARD-HITTING NOVEL, A SOCIAL COMPLAINT. SEX EDUCATION PLAYS A CENTRAL ROLE IN THE PLOT, BUT ALSO THE IMPORTANCE OF BUILDING YOUNG PEOPLE’S SAFETY AND SELF-ESTEEM.

A STORY OF ADVENTURE AND LEARNING, TWELVE ALONE IS A CROSSROAD BETWEEN THE MARTIAN AND HARRY POTTER. AN EXTRAORDINARY SCIENCE FICTION THAT BRINGS THE DETAILS OF AN ASTRONAUT’S CAREER TO YOUNG AUDIENCE.

When the space shuttle Sila V takes off for the far reaches of the Solar System, it does so with the wrong crew: twelve teenagers.. The boys and girls, selected by WASA (the future NASA) to promote the Lunae 2 mission, come from twelve different countries and have very different social backgrounds. Faced with the impossibility of turning around, and during the two years of the trip, they will have to live in a framework of isolation and multiple difficulties, such as the demands of a hard training, the low gravity or the unknown reasons of their unexpected take-off. At a certain point, the twelve have split up. Six remain in the Solar System and the other six end up through a wormhole on a planet in the star Fomalhaut (“Whale’s Mouth” in Arabic), an extraordinary place that hides the secrets of the civilisation that created the egg ship: the Tubulars. In their attempt to undo what happened, the two groups go through experiences that will affect the future of humanity.
