«Los crímenes de la academia» is the historical mystery novel by Louis Bayard, published by Roca Editorial in hardcover (448 pages, in Spanish).
In 1830, the discovery of a cadet's hanged body at West Point disrupts the academy's routine, and the macabre detail that his heart is missing turns the alleged suicide into a criminal investigation. Retired detective Augustus Landor and cadet Edgar Allan Poe delve into a case of murders, secret societies, and ritual sacrifices.
The Spanish translation is by Enrique Alda. The novel was adapted into a Netflix movie starring Christian Bale and Robert Duvall.
Ideal for readers of historical and mystery fiction seeking a detective plot with the young Edgar Allan Poe as co-protagonist.
