2020br. La provincia fiorentina, tra il 1968 e il 1985, diventa l'inquietante scenario degli assassini di otto giovani coppie. Un'ombra scura e senza nome compie questi efferati omicidi seguendo le stesse torbide modalità, senza mai tradirsi né lasciare indizi: cosa lo spinge a lasciare una paurosa scia di sangue dentro il verde della campagna toscana, falciando le giovani vite di questi amanti? Il mistero del Mostro di Firenze continua a essere fonte d'ispirazione, congetture e paure ataviche, spingendo a ripercorrere le sue "mostruose" gesta alla ricerca di una soluzione che sembra sfuggire eternamente.
2020br. Quando il marito Lorenzo muore, la trentunenne Beatrice impazzisce di dolore. Non è che uno spettro della bellissima donna in carriera di un tempo. Rimasta da sola, Beatrice si accorge che una figura sconosciuta e misteriosa la osserva, seguendola dappertutto. Quella persona conosceva suo marito? Bea non immagina che il brillante avvocato che ha sposato anni prima abbia nascosto un terribile segreto: in che modo quell'uomo che lei credeva buono e onesto è collegato alla morte del piccolo Giorgio Marcialis? Con il sostegno del giornalista Samuele, Beatrice intraprende l'insidioso cammino per arrivare alla verità. Un cammino lungo il quale scoprirà che molte persone hanno le mani sporche, anche quelle di cui si fidava.
2018br. Il Guapo e i suoi compari sono quattro infami canaglie, un gruppo di derelitti schiacciati dalla crisi economica, con lavori sottopagati e una montagna di debiti. Non c'è da stupirsi che gli brillino gli occhi quando un losco commerciante di gioielli francese, ben introdotto nel jet set internazionale, gli offre l'occasione della vita: una rapina in una banca di Marrakech nei giorni della fiera dell'oreficeria. La posta in gioco è di due milioni di euro e, per averli, basta arrivare in Marocco e strisciare un po' nei condotti delle fogne. Magari ci sarà da sudare per un paio d'ore, ma poi è fatta. Per mimetizzarsi tra i turisti, meglio portare con sé - a bordo del pulmino bianco con cui viaggeranno da Madrid a Gibilterra e poi oltre lo Stretto - anche mogli e fidanzate. Il committente ha organizzato una spalla, un misterioso arabo saharawi esperto della zona, che ha il compito di fare da interprete e di guidarli a destinazione. E che forse non è quello che sembra. Presto però cominciano i guai: una serie di imprevisti mette a rischio quello che doveva essere un lavoro rapido e pulito ma che, chilometro dopo chilometro, tra battute, insulti e continui colpi di scena, rivela ben altri scopi.

2022br. Una mattina di giugno del 2010 Esteban, di dieci anni, scompare sulla spiaggia basca di Saint-Jean-de-Luz. Nessuno sa niente, nessuno ha visto niente. Dopo le infruttuose ricerche della polizia locale la dottoressa Maddi Libéri, madre di Esteban, lascia il Paese basco e va a rifarsi una vita in Normandia. Torna a Saint-Jean-de-Luz dieci anni dopo, quasi in pellegrinaggio, e sulla stessa spiaggia vede un bambino di dieci anni che è la copia identica di Esteban, indossa lo stesso costume, ha addirittura una voglia nello stesso punto della pelle in cui l'aveva Esteban. Si apposta, lo spia, riesce a scoprire che il bambino si chiama Tom e vive con la madre a Murol, un paesino dell'Alvernia, antica zona vulcanica al centro della Francia. Colpita dalla straordinaria rassomiglianza e dalle incredibili coincidenze, Maddi si trasferisce a Murol, dove apre uno studio medico e segue da vicino Tom, scoprendo presto che corre un grosso pericolo. Vuole salvarlo, ma l'interesse che mostra per un bambino non suo suscita sospetti in paese. Nel frattempo le coincidenze si moltiplicano. Tom sembra la reincarnazione di Esteban, concetto inaccettabile per la mente scientifica della dottoressa Libéri e allo stesso tempo barlume di speranza per la madre inconsolabile. La ricerca della verità di Maddi segue un percorso parallelo di scientificità e irrazionalità, e a complicare le cose contribuiscono due misteriosi omicidi.
2021br. Catapultati fra passato e presente, gli amanti della suspense e del mistero potranno assaporare ogni dettaglio, seguendo i protagonisti nella soluzione di un caso irrisolto di molto tempo prima. Vi piacciono i serial killer? Non potete perdere Lo Squalo.
