The Circle by Bernard Minier

June 2010. In the middle of a World Cup match, Martin Servaz receives a call from a long-lost lover. A few miles away, in the town of Marsac, classics professor Claire Diemar has been brutally murdered.

As if that weren't disturbing enough, Servaz receives a cryptic e-mail indicating that Julian Hirtmann, the most twisted of all serial killers, is back . . . and hitting a little too close to home. With death and chaos surrounding the small university town in southern France, where he was once a student and where his daughter is now enrolled, Servaz must act quickly.

With the help of detectives Ziegler and Espérandieu, Servaz will have to uncover a world of betrayal and depravity to connect the dots between the gruesome murders that keep reopening wounds from his past. Bernard Minier plunges readers once again into a perfectly constructed, dark, and oppressive atmosphere, driven forward by a gripping plot, pushing the limits of the genre.

Bernard Minier (Béziers, 1960) pasó su infancia en Montréjeau, al pie de los Pirineos, donde ha ambientado buena parte de sus libros. Estudiante frustrado de medicina, trabajó para el Servicio de Aduanas de su país antes de dedicarse por completo a la literatura. Es autor de Bajo el hielo, El círculo, No apagues la luz, Una maldita historia y Noche (los tres últimos editados por Salamandra). Con la publicación del primero en 2011 -escogido en 2014 por The Sunday Times entre los cincuenta mejores thrillers y novelas negras del siglo XXI y base de la serie de televisión homónima- se reveló como la última gran sensación del thriller psicológico francés. Minier es el único escritor que ha sido distinguido en dos ocasiones con el Premio Polar en el Festival de Cognac. También ha recibido el Premio de l ́Embouchure y el Premio de las Bibliotecas y las Mediatecas Cognac, entre otros. Su obra se ha traducido en veinte países y se han vendido más de dos millones de ejemplares.
