Tinta y sombras / Ink and Shadows (Spanish Edition)

Miracle Springs is a spa town with a reputation for wellness, community, and quiet charm. Nora Pennington fits right in: she runs Miracle Books, a warm and welcoming independent bookshop, and together with her three closest friends she has founded the Secret Reading and Snack Club — an informal gathering where good books and good food make even bad days manageable. When Celeste Leopold and her daughter Bren arrive in town planning to open a shop selling cannabis-derived products, not everyone is pleased. The Society for the Defence of Solid Values, led by Connie Knapp, the preacher's wife, launches a public campaign against the newcomers. And when Nora decorates her bookshop window for Halloween with novels featuring formidable, unconventional women — Lady Macbeth, Medusa, and others who refused to be contained — the same society turns on her too. The conflict is uncomfortable and divisive. But it becomes something far darker when Bren and Celeste are found dead. Two murders, and a town that suddenly has a great deal to hide. Nora begins to investigate — and quickly realises that what seems like a story about intolerance has much deeper and more dangerous roots. Tinta y sombras is the fourth book in Ellery Adams' "Secret, Book & Scone Society" series, published in Spanish as "Secretos, libros y bollos." Adams is a USA Today and New York Times bestselling author who has written over forty novels. A native New Yorker now based in North Carolina, she has held many jobs including caterer, retail clerk, car salesperson, teacher, tutor, and tech writer, all the while writing poems, children's books, and novels. The Nora Pennington series is among her most successful, praised for its richly drawn community, bibliophilic atmosphere, and the genuine warmth of its ensemble cast. Each book stands on its own while rewarding readers who follow the series from the beginning.
