Synopsis "A Murder of Saints"

Sophie Fields is a little girl tortured by her memories of Damien Smith, a much-loved and respected church elder with a secret lust for the unmentionable. After his misdeeds are covered up by church leaders, she climbs to the roof of her house and jumps to her death, right in front of her shocked brother, Charlie.Twenty years later, detective Harry Fletcher is still haunted by the personal demons associated with the church cover-up. After losing his faith, his wife, and now his partner, Fletcher learns that Charlie Fields has come back to town with one mission: to kill everyone responsible for his sister's death. It is Fletcher's job to track and stop the crazed killer. But as it becomes clear who the main targets are, Fletcher finds himself in the midst of a moral quagmire. Although he sees justice in Charlie's crusade, the killer seems to be taking out others not responsible for his family's destruction. As Fletcher and his new partner battle each other in a test of ideology and limits of the law, the real demons show up and change everything. In this chilling tale of suspense, revenge, and evil, a police detective wrestles with his moral conscience while attempting to stop a serial killer avenging his sister's death.

Chris Miller, cuyo nombre completo es Christopher Miller, es un historiador y analista estadounidense especializado en geopolítica, tecnología y economía internacional. Profesor en la Fletcher School de la Universidad de Tufts, su trabajo se mueve donde chocan los Estados, los mercados y la innovación tecnológica, un cruce poco cómodo pero decisivo para entender el mundo actual. Con formación histórica sólida y olfato estratégico, Miller se ha convertido en una voz influyente para explicar por qué la tecnología no es neutral y mucho menos apolítica.

Es autor de La guerra de los chips, un ensayo que examina cómo los semiconductores se transformaron en el recurso clave del poder global, influyendo en conflictos, alianzas y economías enteras. Este libro recibió el Financial Times Business Book of the Year Award, consolidando su impacto internacional. También escribió We Shall Be Masters, centrado en la competencia tecnológica durante la Guerra Fría. Su estilo combina claridad narrativa con análisis riguroso, sin simplificar lo que, por naturaleza, es complejamente incómodo.
