Add Thriller Novel "Red Queen" To Your 2023 TBR List

Red Queen by Juan Gomez-Jurado, in our view, is one of the most exciting new releases of 2023 in International thriller category and a great new pick for thriller fans (Release Date: March 14, 2023).

Introducing Antonia Scott―a compelling and original detective similar to Lisbeth Salander―this book which has already sold more than 2 million copies in Spanish is the first in a new trilogy. The second and third titles in this series include “Black Wolf” and “White King”.

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.

…a great pick for the fans of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo Millennium trilogy.

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.
