Atrapa Al Culpable
Esta nueva colección de relatos policíacos, dirigida tanto a niños como a adultos con una mente aguda e inquieta, nace con el propósito de satisfacer el creciente interés de los niños en las historias de misterio e intriga. Se compone de casos policíacos muy breves, de una a cuatro páginas de extensión, que el lector debe esclarecer. El tercer volumen, Atrapa al culpable, consta de 21 relatos de crímenes que el lector debe resolver: el asesinato de un chef a la puerta de su restaurante, el intento de homicidio de una anfitriona cometido por uno de sus huéspedes, un chantaje que puede resultar mortífero... Todos ellos se desarrollan en Capital City, y son resueltos por el sargento Gunther Wilson, o más bien por el excéntrico protagonista, Sherman Holmes, que afirma ser el tataranieto de Sherlock Holmes. Las soluciones a los distintos casos aparecen al final del libro. Entre los relatos incluidos en este libro cabe citar: “Un crimen en el campo”, “El asesinato trabaja los fines de semana”, “Sí, señor, esa bomba es mía”, “Homicidio en el despacho de casa”...

About the author
Hy Conrad
46 books165 followersHY CONRAD has made a career out of murder, earning the 2022 Independent Press Award for Best Mystery (“The Fixer’s Daughter”) and 2022 NYC Big Book Awards for Best Mystery Series (“The Fixer’s Daughter,” “Sins of the Family”), a Scribe Award for Best Novel (“Mr. Monk Helps Himself”) and garnering three Edgar nominations from the Mystery Writers of America (for the “Monk” TV series). Along the way, he developed a horde of popular games and interactive films, hundreds of short stories and a dozen books of solvable mysteries, published in over 15 languages. Hy is best known for his eight seasons as writer/co-executive producer for the ground-breaking TV series, “Monk.” Other shows include “White Collar” and “The Good Cop.”
As a novelist, Hy authored the final four books in the Monk series, the Amy Travel Mysteries (“Toured to Death,” “Dearly Departed” and “Death on the Patagonian Express”) and the Callie McFee Mysteries (“The Fixer’s Daughter,” a Barnes & Noble bestseller and “Sins of the Family”).
In the world of theatre, his produced works consist of “Home Exchange” (a mystery), “Ta-Dah!” (a musical), and “Quarantine for Two” (a socially distanced dark comedy about the pandemic).
When he looks up from his keyboard, Hy sees either the hills of Vermont or the palm trees of Key West, depending on the time of year. He also sees Jeff Johnson, his partner of 43 years, now his husband, plus Nelson and Stella, the latest in a dynasty of mini-schnauzers.
