Sobre IBD

Es esta una novela noir ligeramente biográfica, en la que la naturaleza aparece como un elemento determinante a través del ciclo lunar, las mareas y una gran tormenta que impregna al lector a lo largo de la trama. En esta historia lenta, oscura y húmeda, Xema Hernán nos presenta a la inspectora Isla Sven, del Departamento de Investigación Criminal de Devon y Cornualles, quien, al investigar una llamada telefónica, encuentra a un hombre en estado de shock, cubierto de sangre, sosteniendo un pico de camping e incapaz de decir por qué está allí o qué ha sucedido. Una vez en comisaría, los detectives solo pueden sacarle unos pocos detalles. Su nombre es George Álvarez, es profesor y se muestra colaborativo, aunque parece no querer recordar nada de lo ocurrido esa noche. Sin una víctima que señale el crimen y con los preparativos en marcha para la gran tormenta —algo mucho más prioritario—, George es liberado. Al día siguiente, Isla recibe una llamada del internado local: una estudiante, Grace Fortune, ha desaparecido.
