2018ril. Il guardiano dei Musei nazionali delle residenze napoleoniche sa che la sua vera identità è stata scoperta. Stanno venendo a prenderlo. Ma non si farà catturare vivo, perché quello è l'epilogo di un piano scritto anni prima. L'eredità di Napoleone è in pericolo, e lui è pronto a trasferirla nelle mani della bambina che ha visto crescere. Katherine Sinclaire, però, è all'oscuro di tutto. Sta presentando il suo ultimo bestseller a Roma, in un auditorium gremito di gente, e non può nemmeno immaginare che nei ricordi delle vacanze all'Isola d'Elba si nascondano le risposte ai più grandi interrogativi della storia. Sullo sfondo, due società segrete che da duecento anni si contendono la supremazia sulla verità. La prima, voluta da Napoleone stesso per proteggere le scoperte archeologiche che hanno costellato le sue imprese. L'altra è una delle organizzazioni più influenti al mondo. Al centro, il mistero della campagna d'Egitto. Katherine si lascerà coinvolgere in una cospirazione, i cui risvolti potrebbero mettere in discussione il corso della storia e le convinzioni acquisite sulle civiltà più antiche. E quando penserà di avere decifrato tutti gli enigmi che via via le si sono presentati, si troverà intrappolata in uno sconvolgente intrigo familiare: l'inizio di un nuovo viaggio che la porterà lontano, in un futuro senza segreti nel passato. Là dove il destino non muore.

La notte buia della violenza, della solitudine e della morte in dodici racconti tra l'horror e il noir.

2019br. Dopo una sfortunata stagione di charter in Egeo la goletta di Paolo è ormeggiata alla banchina di Castelsardo con il motore fuori uso e un paio di vele sbrindellate. Rimetterla in sesto richiede tempo e soldi e con il conto in banca ridotto al lumicino il progetto di charterizzarla ai Caraibi sta sfumando miseramente. A toglierlo dagli impicci si presenta senza preavviso Frantzisca, una donna fascinosa accompagnata da due uomini mal assortiti, Ivo e Carmelo. Lo strano trio gli propone di noleggiare la goletta per una crociera di un mese, offrendosi di sostenere le spese per le riparazioni oltre al pagamento del noleggio. La meta è lo stretto di Gibilterra passando per le Baleari, con scali intermedi a scelta dello skipper. Paolo, malgrado un'iniziale diffidenza, accetta la proposta. L'atmosfera serena dei primi giorni di navigazione presto si guasta a causa del comportamento insolente di Ivo e dell'avvenenza di Frantzisca. I dubbi di Paolo si fanno via via più fitti, fin quando, una volta giunti a Malaga, una rivelazione chiarisce lo scopo della munifica offerta. La crociera si trasforma repentinamente in una lotta per la sopravvivenza, ma il pericolo non proviene solo dal mare...
