City of Drowned Souls

When a child vanishes, a city’s darkest secrets rise to the surface – and in the shadows of Catalonia, justice comes at a price.

Detective Elisenda Domènech is no stranger to grief. Haunted by personal loss and worn down by infighting within the force, she’s already on the edge. Then a young boy disappears – the son of a powerful local politician, just days before an election.

As pressure mounts to find the child, a wave of violent break-ins is terrorising the city, and Elisenda’s key informant has disappeared. With the public demanding results, Elisenda finds herself navigating a tangled web of lies, violence, and political pressure.

Taut, elegant, and relentlessly compelling – this is European Noir at its finest, for fans of Elly Griffiths and Ragnar Jónasson.

Chris Lloyd, author of the Girona trilogy set in Catalonia and the award-winning Occupation series, crafts immersive, atmospheric crime fiction.
