Description

Ganadora del Premio Internacional de Novela Negra RBA 2009. Berlin, 1934: Los nazis han logrado asegurar que los juegos olmpicos de 1936 se celebren en la ciudad pero enfrentan resistencia del exterior. Hitler y Avery Brundage, jefe del comit olmpico de los Estados Unidos, se confabulan para suavizar el antisemitismo nazi y convencer a los americanos a participar en los juegos. Bernie Gunther, el detective de planta de un hotel de lujo en Berln, se ve arrastrado a este mundo de corrupcin y doble juego, atrapado en una guerra entre facciones del aparato nazi. Habana, 1954: Batista, apoyado por la CIA, toma el poder. Castro se encuentra tras las rejas y la mafia americana est a un punto de asumir el control total de las lucrativas industrias de la prostitucin y los casinos. Bernie, quien ha sido expulsado sin ceremonia alguna de Buenos Aires, reaparece en Cuba para comenzar una vida nueva, regida por la rutina y la paz, pero descubre que no puede dejar atrs su pasado. Estando en Cuba se topa con un asesino despiadado de sus das en Berln, a quien encuentran despus misteriosamente asesinado, y a una vieja amante, quien podra ser la asesina. Si los muertos no resucitan tiene todos los elementos que los admiradores de Philip Kerr esperan: intriga, una trama torcida y cerrada, lneas ingeniosas y un final tenso, pero an ms significativo, un Bernie Gunther ms rico y sabio. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION The Nazis have secured the 1936 Olympiad for the city but are facing foreign resistance. Hitler and Avery Brundage, the head of the U.S. Olympic Committee, have connived to soft-pedal Nazi anti- Semitism and convince America to participate. Bernie Gunther, now the house detective at an upscale Berlin hotel, is swept into this world of international corruption and dangerous double-dealing, caught between the warring factions of the Nazi apparatus. Havana, 1954: Batista, aided by the CIA, has just seized power; Castro is in prison; and the American Mafia is quickly gaining a stranglehold on the city's exploding gaming and prostitution industries. Bernie, who has been unceremoniously kicked out of Buenos Aires, has resurfaced in Cuba with a new life, seemingly one of routine and relative peace. But Bernie discovers that he truly cannot outrun the burden of his past: He soon collides with a vicious killer from his Berlin days, who is mysteriously murdered not long afterward-and an old lover, who may be the murderer. If the Dead Rise Not is everything fans have come to expect from Philip Kerr: twisted intrigue, tight plotting, quick-witted one-liners, a hang-by-your-thumbs ending, and, most significant, a richer, wiser Bernie Gunther.
