A special, limited edition, with a brand new cover and the first two chapters of The Invisible Ones. Winner of the Costa Book of the Year, Best First Novel of the Year Awards and the Theakstons Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year Award. 1867, Canada: as winter tightens its grip on the isolated settlement of Dove River, a man is brutally murdered and a 17-year old boy disappears. Tracks leaving the dead man's cabin head north towards the forest and the tundra beyond. In the wake of such violence, people are drawn to the township - journalists, Hudson's Bay Company men, trappers, traders - but do they want to solve the crime or exploit it? One-by-one the assembled searchers set out from Dove River, pursuing the tracks across a desolate landscape home only to wild animals, madmen and fugitives, variously seeking a murderer, a son, two sisters missing for 17 years, a Native American culture, and a fortune in stolen furs before the snows settle and cover the tracks of the past for good. In an astonishingly assured debut Stef Penney deftly weaves adventure, suspense, revelation and humour into a story that is both panoramic historical romance and exhilarating thriller. Now reissued in an attractive new livery, The Tenderness of Wolves is one of the most widely liked and admired novels of the previous decade.

Zustand: Muy bueno. : En el invierno de 1867, en el aislado asentamiento de Dove River, Canadá, un hombre es brutalmente asesinado y un joven de 17 años desaparece. Las huellas que salen de la cabaña del hombre muerto se dirigen hacia el norte, hacia el bosque y la tundra. Tras tal violencia, personas son atraídas al municipio: periodistas, hombres de la Hudson's Bay Company, tramperos, comerciantes. ¿Quieren resolver el crimen o explotarlo? Uno por uno, los buscadores reunidos parten de Dove River, persiguiendo las huellas a través de un paisaje desolado, hogar solo de animales salvajes, locos y fugitivos, buscando a un asesino, a un hijo, a dos hermanas desaparecidas durante 17 años, a una cultura nativa americana y a una fortuna en pieles robadas antes de que las nieves se asienten y cubran para siempre las huellas del pasado. Una historia que es a la vez romance histórico panorámico y thriller estimulante.
