In 'Crímenes: Pecados Capitales,' Carles Porta, the creator of '¿Por qué matamos?' and 'Crims/Crímenes,' returns with an addictive format that explores real crimes in a shocking way. The book examines how the seven deadly sins (pride, greed, lust, wrath, gluttony, envy, and sloth) have been motives in various crimes. Through seven real stories, Porta analyzes cases such as the kidnapping of Mélodie Nakachian, the crime at the Esclat supermarket, the disappearance of a baby in Canovelles, the Febamar case, the cannibal of Ventas, the Shaolin monk of Bilbao, and the murder of Isidre Matas. With a rigorous and entertaining style, the author delves into the psychological, social, political, and cultural aspects of each case, keeping the reader in suspense until the last line.
Carles Porta i Gaset is a Catalan journalist, producer, director, screenwriter and writer, specialized in crime journalism and investigation.
