Mark Sullivan Libros

Del autor de Bajo un cielo escarlata, una nueva novela histórica inspirada por la increíble historia de coraje y supervivencia de una familia para escapar de Ucrania durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial. A finales de marzo de 1944, a medida que las tropas soviéticas se adentran en Ucrania, Emil y Adeline Martel se ven obligados a tomar una agónica decisión: ¿deben esperarlas y arriesgarse a ser enviados a Siberia? ¿O seguir a regañadientes a los peligrosos oficiales nazis que han jurado protegerlos? Los Martel son una de las muchas familias de ascendencia alemana cuyos antepasados han trabajado la tierra en Ucrania durante más de un siglo. Pero tras vivir bajo el régimen de terror de Stalin, la joven pareja decide que su mejor opción es huir en retirada junto a los nazis, a los que desprecian, para escapar de los soviéticos en busca de su libertad. Atrapados entre dos fuerzas en lucha y enfrentados a terribles dificultades para lograr su objetivo de llegar al oeste, la historia de los Martel es un emocionante, desgarrador y, finalmente, esperanzador relato que ilumina el extraordinario poder del amor y de los sueños y la increíble voluntad de sobrevivir de una familia. «¡Mark Sullivan lo ha vuelto a lograr! El último valle verde es una fascinante e inspiradora historia de heroísmo y coraje en los oscuros días del final de la Segunda Guerra Mundial». Kristin Hannah, autora de El Ruiseñor ENGLISH DESCRIPTION “Mark Sullivan has done it again! The Last Green Valley is a compelling and inspiring story of heroism and courage in the dark days at the end of World War II.” ―Kristin Hannah, #1 New York Times bestselling author From the author of the #1 bestseller Beneath a Scarlet Sky comes a new historical novel inspired by one family’s incredible story of daring, survival, and triumph. In late March 1944, as Stalin’s forces push into Ukraine, young Emil and Adeline Martel must make a terrible decision: Do they wait for the Soviet bear’s intrusion and risk being sent to Siberia? Or do they reluctantly follow the wolves―murderous Nazi officers who have pledged to protect “pure-blood” Germans? The Martels are one of many families of German heritage whose ancestors have farmed in Ukraine for more than a century. But after already living under Stalin’s horrifying regime, Emil and Adeline decide they must run in retreat from their land with the wolves they despise to escape the Soviets and go in search of freedom. Caught between two warring forces and overcoming horrific trials to pursue their hope of immigrating to the West, the Martels’ story is a brutal, complex, and ultimately triumphant tale that illuminates the extraordinary power of love, faith, and one family’s incredible will to survive and see their dreams realized.

Outdoorsman and documentary filmmaker Patrick Gallagher had torpedoed a promising career through self-destructive self-pity and procrastination. Now he seeks redemption in tiny, isolated Lawton, Vermont, embarking upon a new project and, perhaps, a last chance. But there is no salvation to be found in Lawton--not for Gallagher, or for Andie Nightingale, the beautiful but haunted local policewoman who befriends him...or for anyone living within the borders of the sleepy New England hamlet. For a local history that no one dares to speak about has enflamed a maniac's bloodlust, and his desire for vengeance. It is Gallagher who discovers the first corpse while out fishing--the body of a large man, tortured, ravaged, and hideously mutilated; a horror despoiling the pristine natural landscape. Nearby is a crudely drawn picture, chilling in its implications, accompanied by a grim, cryptic threat--and a name: Charon, boatman on the river to Hell. And there are more murders to come--each more grisly than the last--awakening the personal ghosts that haunt Gallagher and Nightingale, while drawing them deeper into the horrors of a past century...and closer to shocking revelations of brutal, shared guilt contained in the lost writing of a long-dead Lakota woman. For evil once rolled into Lawton in the wagon of a traveling show. And here it has remained for one hundred years, taking human form once more as an elusive and terrifying killer who ruthlessly stalks those who guard the terrible legacy of their great-grandparents. And the secrets to Charon's power, obsession and defeat lie in the spiritual place that Patrick Gallagher and Andie Nightingale most fear must enter: the forbidden realm of the Ghost Dance.
