«O Assédio» is the historical novel by Arturo Pérez-Reverte, published by Asa in paperback (672 pages, in Portuguese).
Cádiz, 1811, besieged by the French: bodies of young women appear and, shortly before each discovery, a bomb explodes. A corrupt policeman, an heiress, a corsair, a taxidermist spy, a guerrilla fighter and a French artilleryman are trapped in a macabre game where chance and the calculation of probabilities decide fate.
The original novel is «El asedio» (2010); the Portuguese edition features a translation by Helena Pitta.
For readers of intrigue and mystery, with Napoleonic Cádiz as the setting.
Periodista, ex reportero de guerra y novelista español, autor de la saga del capitán Alatriste y de novelas como La tabla de Flandes y El club Dumas.
