Synopsis "La Piedra de Fuego (the Resurrection Maker) (in Spanish)"

Quién no ha soñado con tener el poder de un dios? Quién no ha deseado ser capaz de regresar del reino de los muertos? Año 33, d. C. Nehor, experto en minerales, recibe la visita de Judas, seguidor de Jesús, quien manifiesta su preocupación por la seguridad de su maestro. Ante la situación de peligro inminente, Nehor hace entrega a Judas de un cáliz que fabricó a partir de unos pedazos de materia que halló enterrados y le promete que, si el maestro bebe de él, podrá salvarse de la muerte. Barcelona, 1883 a sus treinta y un años, Antonio Gaudí se ha convertido ya en uno de los arquitectos más apreciados de la ciudad. Deprimido por un desengaño amoroso, Gaudí está a punto de rechazar un proyecto de tanta envergadura como la construcción de la Sagrada Familia, cuando un increíble hallazgo cambiará para siempre su futuro y el de la ciudad que se ha rendido a su talento. Inglaterra, época actual: el brillante ejecutivo Arthur Malory siempre ha estado obsesionado con la búsqueda del Santo Grial. Pero cuando uno de sus mejores amigos es asesinado tras descubrir una pista sobre su posible ubicación, encontrarlo se convierte en una cuestión de supervivencia. Arthur emprende una carrera contrarreloj que le llevará de Inglaterra a la abadía de Montserrat y a las calles de Barcelona, siguiendo las pistas de un personaje que parece ser clave en todo este misterio: el genial Antoni Gaudí. Un apasionante thriller histórico del maestro Glenn Cooper, un autor que cuenta ya con más de 7.000.000 de lectores en todo el mundo La crítica ha dicho...Su corte de seguidores [de Glenn Cooper] aumenta a un ritmo apabullante.El País Resulta cada vez más evidente que el nuevo milenio tiene un corazón macabro.

A heart pounding adventure that will keep you on the edge of your seat! Arthur Malory, a seemingly ordinary Englishman, has a burning interest in the Grail, a passion inherited from his father. Thrust into a life-or-death quest to find the precious artifact, he will discover not only his own amazing heritage but the power that the Grail possesses, a power that informs the resurrection of Christ and explosively merges spiritual and scientific thought.

He was the CEO of a biotechnology company for almost twenty years, has written numerous screenplays and has produced three independent feature films.

Combining faith, science and a good set of chills."Alessandro Mezzena Lona, Il Piccolo "Glenn Cooper proves once again to have beaten Dan Brown in the field of esoteric thrillers."Luca Crovi, Il Giornale "As Cooper builds the layers of intrigue it becomes clear that he is no ordinary thriller writer, but one who asks big questions."Sunday Telegraph (UK)
