A Wall Street Journal "Best Mystery of 2022"

A September 2022 Amazon Best of the Month Pick

"Dicker salutes Agatha Christie even as he drops the reader through one trapdoor into another, so that by the end, we doubt we've ever read another novel quite like it. (We haven't.) Fans of Ruth Ware and Lucy Foley will hug this book in between chapters; the many readers who love Anthony Horowitz's mysteries will celebrate. And me? I'll be reading it again."--A. J. Finn, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Woman in the Window

"[The Enigma of Room 622 is an] exhilarating tour de force"-The Wall Street Journal

A burnt-out writer's retreat at a fancy Swiss hotel is interrupted by a murder mystery in this metafictional, meticulously crafted whodunit from the New York Times bestselling author of The Truth About the Harry Quebert Affair.

A writer named Joël, Switzerland's most prominent novelist, flees to the Hôtel de Verbier, a luxury resort in the Swiss Alps. Disheartened over a recent breakup and his longtime publisher's death, Joël hopes to rest. However, his plans quickly go awry. It all starts with a seemingly innocuous detail: at the Verbier, there is no room 622.

Before long, Joël and fellow guest Scarlett, acting as amateur sleuths, uncover a long-unsolved murder that transpired in the hotel's room 622. The attendant circumstances add layers of corporate intrigue: the succession of Switzerland's largest private bank, a mysterious counterintelligence operation called P-30, and a most disreputable sabotage of hotel hospitality. A European phenomenon, The Enigma of Room 622 is a true mystery within a mystery--a matryoshka doll of intrigue--as precise as a Swiss watch--and Dicker's most diabolically addictive thriller yet.

Joü¾˜¦”¼l Dicker naciü¾Œ¶˜¼ en Suiza en 1985. En 2010 obtuvo el Premio de los Escritores Ginebrinos con su primera novela, Los ü¾˜–˜¼ltimos dü¾™†”¼as de nuestros padres (Alfaguara, 2014). La verdad sobre el caso Harry Quebert (Alfaguara, 2013), fue galardonada con el Premio Goncourt des Lycü¾Ž–”¼ens, el Gran Premio de Novela de la Academia Francesa, el Premio Lire a la mejor novela en lengua francesa, y, en Espaü¾Œ–˜¼a, fue elegida Mejor Libro del Aü¾Œ–˜¼o por los lectores de El Paü¾™†”¼s y mereciü¾Œ¶˜¼ el Premio Quü¾Ž–”¼ Leer al mejor libro traducido y el XX Premio San Clemente otorgado por los alumnos de bachillerato de varios institutos de Galicia. Traducida con gran ü¾Ž–”¼xito a treinta y tres idiomas, se ha convertido en un fenü¾Œ¶˜¼meno literario global.

El Libro de los Baltimore (2016), su esperada esperada tercera novela, recupera a Marcus Goldman como protagonista. Ahora Alfaguara publica El tigre, un relato escrito cuando Dicker contaba con diecinueve aü¾Œ–˜¼os y que por su calidad un jurado literario no creü¾™†˜¼o que fuera suyo.
