2019br. In un mondo che ogni giorno conferma le apocalittiche previsioni degli scienziati del clima, Noah e Iskra cercano la verità su chi ha voluto nascondere la schiacciante evidenza del riscaldamento globale. Dalle lande ghiacciate della Siberia dove i signori del gas portano alla luce un tesoro nascosto e letale, alla New York spettrale minacciata dall'uragano Sandy sino alle coste di Ravenna, erose dal mare che continua a crescere: i due giovani attivisti, nipoti di esuli siberiani, si trovano e si perdono, legati dall'emergenza comune di salvare la Terra, finché si è ancora in tempo. Intorno a loro gli schieramenti opposti della guerra del clima conducono un gioco pericoloso, che riguarda il destino dell'umanità e di un pianeta in bilico tra azioni di hacker russi, interessi di lobbisti cinesi e conflitti tra esperti. Con la tensione di un thriller e i dettagli di una serrata cronaca sul campo, Gerardo Greco ricostruisce le tappe del Climategate che, nel 2009, ha contribuito al fallimento della conferenza di Copenhagen, condannando il termometro a salire in una escalation pericolosa. Una corsa verso il baratro che ripercorre i drammatici eventi climatici degli ultimi dieci anni e i cambiamenti che trent'anni fa gli studiosi potevano già leggere nelle sezioni dei tronchi degli alberi fossili. Resta solo una domanda sottotraccia, venata di inquietudine e speranza: abbiamo ancora tempo?

2016brossura La "realtà aumentata" è l'ultima conquista della tecnologia nel campo dell'intrattenimento multimediale. Tutti i grandi colossi internazionali, da Google a Microsoft, da Marck Zuckenberg a Jan Koum, stanno investendo milioni di dollari sull'affare del secolo. La "Miglior Vita Corporation", del magnate Ronald O'Bryan, promette a tutti emozioni senza precedenti. I suoi cinema, dotati di tecnlogia 4D, immergeranno gli "spettatori-partecipanti" in una realtà alternativa dove sarà praticamente impossibile distinguere la realtà dalla finzione. Le prime proiezioni sembrano dare risultati eccellenti. Tutti sembrano entusiasti... ansiosi di provare questa fantastica tecnologia... ma l'uragano Carola, in arrivo sulla costa atlantica, sembra voler rimandare i facili entusiasmi degli abitanti di Portsmouth. Oltre questo... i comportamenti di coloro che hanno partecipato alle prime proiezioni appaiono strani. Le interviste mostrano persone in preda ad una strana estasi... urla... pianti... strani movimenti... È soltanto il risultato di una fortissima emozione o si cela un'ombra dietro questa tecnologia?
2015br. Islanda, inverno 2008. Un incendio uccide in modo atroce quattro disabili e il custode della residenza in cui vivevano. Le autorità individuano il colpevole in un ragazzo down che, condannato per aver appiccato il fuoco, viene rinchiuso in un ospedale psichiatrico. È ancora prigioniero della struttura quando, due anni dopo, un avvocato si interessa al suo caso e, sicura che il mistero dell'incendio nasconda altro, decide di fare chiarezza. Ma la luce di Islanda, abbagliante, sa essere ingannevole: cancella i contorni, la profondità, e anche le facciate bianche delle case borghesi, linde, ordinate, possono nascondere legno marcito. Le ricerche si impantanano, girano a vuoto, inquietanti apparizioni spettrali infestano le notti troppo lunghe e le piste più promettenti si rivelano specchietti per le allodole: la verità, questa volta, potrebbe essere troppo distante, celata nel mondo impenetrabile di un giovane autistico, nei suoi disegni che sono squarci, e nei silenzi di una donna costretta a letto dalla paralisi, in quei suoi occhi spaventati di animale in trappola. In questo romanzo, che è anche il tentativo riuscito di sottrarre l'Islanda alla spettacolarità dei suoi scorci naturali per indagarne la disgregazione umana e morale, le periferie lugubri e deserte, Yrsa Sigurdardóttir insegue una scrittura secca ma empatica, piana ma non per questo confortevole, e tende con maestria i fili di un thriller che spiazza, mozza il fiato: per il freddo, per la paura.
2021br. Lunedì 28 settembre, ore 00.17. La polizia di Düsseldorf riceve una strana chiamata: qualcuno ha notato movimenti sospetti in una fabbrica abbandonata nella zona del porto. Ma quando gli agenti arrivano sul posto, si rendono subito conto che non si tratta di banali traffici: questo è un caso per la Omicidi; questo è un caso per Georg Stadler. Svegliato di soprassalto e condotto sulla scena, il commissario si trova di fronte uno spettacolo sconcertante: una pozza di sangue sul pavimento, un rasoio, uno specchio in frantumi, ma... nessun cadavere. Solo un oscuro codice tracciato sulla parete. Un mistero indecifrabile, se non fosse che a distanza di pochi giorni, in una camera di albergo, viene rinvenuto il corpo di una donna con indosso solo un paio di slip, la mano destra appoggiata sul petto in una posa innaturale. Sangue dappertutto: sulle lenzuola bianche, sul tappeto, sul collo e sui lunghi capelli della vittima. Due casi apparentemente scollegati, eppure Stadler non riesce a liberarsi da un sospetto: entrambe le scene del crimine sembrano allestite come un macabro set cinematografico. Al commissario non resta che ricorrere di nuovo all'aiuto di Liz Montario, la brillante profiler a cui è legato da una sottile attrazione. Ma stavolta anche Liz avrà del filo da torcere, perché ogni progresso nell'indagine, ogni nuova scoperta sembra convergere su un unico indiziato: lo stesso commissario Stadler.
