Nothing Is What It Seems

Is the countess of Dalmau alive or dead? Ore even worse, did she even exist?

Continuation of "The Twelve Doors" series. NOW IN ENGLISH! #1 bestseller in Spain, Mexico and the United States (Spanish Version). #1 bestseller historical thriller and mystery series in Spain for the last two years. More than 600,000 readers.

IMPORTANT: This is the second book of the saga. You need to have read "The Twelve Doors (Part I)."

"The Twelve Doors is the best saga of thrillers I have read in ten years. With simple language that manages to keep you in suspense until the last line. You finish a chapter and you need to read the next one. Vicente Raga it's a real find." Harald Brook, Tribuna Libre.

"Sell more than Ken Follet last Christmas in Spain is far from the reach of many. In my house, there isn't one that hasn't read it, even my three sons. Dynamic narrative and a documented novel. Very recommendable." Roberto Marín, Florida Books.

Do you want to enter the universe of The Twelve Doors? Think about it, because once you enter, it will be difficult to turn around... Two stories are narrated in parallel. The first one is in Valencia's Jewish quarter in Spain, where some kids stumble upon a secret society that still exists nowadays. A great mystery that takes us back to that difficult period for the Jewish people. All the characters lived in their time period, and every narrated fact occurred in reality. The second story stars a group of friends in the present day that must solve a centennial-old mystery.

Without a doubt, the highlight of the series is their female main characters, the historian Rebecca Mercader and her mysterious friend Carlota Penella, whose fame has surpassed the novel series itself. It isn't strange because they are among the most Intelligent women in Europe.

The reader changes the story every 4-6 pages. Different characters and tales are separated by more than six hundred years. It looks like two novels in one. The reader starts asking himself, why am I reading two stories with no apparent connections? The simple answer is that you will figure it out if you keep reading. Maybe they have more connections than you think, and nothing is what it seems.

Mystery, thriller and real history, a cocktail that makes the universe of "The Twelve Doors" a novel series that is entertaining and easy to read, that WON'T ALLOW YOU TO PUT THE BOOK DOWN.

An excerpt from an interview for Tribuna Libre.

QUESTION: Are you able to summarize your novel in a few words?
ANSWER: Nothing is what it seems.
Q: But that's the title!
A:: Rarely does a title better describe the content of a book. Everything you have read in the previous part, everything you think you know, is not what it seems. Not even the children.
Q: At least, do we discover why the stories that are separated by more than six hundred years have to do with each other?
A: You discover more than that. Until the very last page, and I mean it literally, it won't stop surprising you. It's a great adventure!
Q: Now, let's talk about you. You studied an MBA degree, learned languages... to finish up being a politician and a writer.
A: Hahahaha, if you say it like that, it seems like I've been doing worse, right? Having been a councilman in my hometown for more than six years, apart from being an honor, is a vocation just as being a writer.

Don't miss the continuation of a great adventure.
You will be shocked by his unexpected and surprising ending.
