Black Wolf (Antonia Scott #2) by Juan Gomez-Jurado

The sequel to Juan Gomez-Jurado's number one international bestseller Red Queen, featuring Antonia Scott, the most compelling and original detective since Lisbeth Salander.

Antonia Scott is the lynchpin of the Red Queen project, created to work behind the scenes to solve the most dark, devious and dangerous crimes.

In southern Spain, on the Costa del Sol, a key mafia figure is found brutally murdered in his villa. His pregnant wife, Lola Moreno, barely escapes an attempt to kill her and is on the run. An unusual shipping container arrives from Saint Petersburg with the bodies of nine women inside it.

Now Antonia, with the help of her protector, Jon Gutierrez, must track down the missing Lola. But they aren't the only ones - a dangerous hitman, known as the Black Wolf, is also on her trail. And Anotonia Scott, still plagued by her personal demons, must outwit, outmanoeuvre and ultimately face this terrible, mysterious killer.

Antonia Scott and Jon Gutierrez return in the sequel to Red Queen, now streaming on Amazon Prime.
