Publisher's summary
En el período comprendido entre las dos Exposiciones Universales de Barcelona de 1888 y 1929, con el telón de fondo de una ciudad tumultuosa, agitada y pintoresca, real y ficticia, asistimos a las andanzas de Onofre Bouvila, inmigrante paupérrimo, repartidor de propaganda anarquista y vendedor ambulante de crecepelo, y su ascensión a la cima del poder financiero y delictivo.
Mendoza nos propone un nuevo y singularísimo avatar de la novela picaresca y un brillante carrusel imaginativo de los mitos y fastos locales. Una fantasía satírica y lúdica cuyo sólido soporte realista inicial no excluye la fabulación libérrima.
Please note: This audiobook is in Spanish.

Story
Un joven inglés experto en Velázquez llega a Madrid para autenticar un supuesto cuadro del pintor español en los meses previos al estallido de la guerra civil. El cuadro pertenece a un amigo de José Antonio Primo de Rivera y su valor económico puede determinar el desarrollo de los acontecimientos políticos. A pesar de desconocer la crítica situación del país, o quizá por ello, Anthony Whitelands entabla relación con personajes clave del momento, es testigo de hechos cruciales y consigue salir airoso de situaciones peligrosas.

Story
Las aventuras de Rufo Batalla parecen encaminarse al remansamiento cuando contrae matrimonio con una rica heredera, pero no consigue olvidar al príncipe Tukuulo y a su exquisita esposa. La agitada transición política española ha dado paso a una prosperidad económica que parece destinada a no tener fin. Mientras, la caída del muro de Berlín culmina un proceso de transformación que presagia el descalabro de la URSS, y de repente lo que parecía una locura, la conquista del reino de Livonia, se vuelve posible.

Story
Condenado a muerte por los bolcheviques en 1922, el conde Aleksandr Ilich Rostov elude su trágico final por un inusitado giro del destino. Gracias a un poema subversivo escrito diez años antes, el comité revolucionario conmuta la pena máxima por un arresto domiciliario inaudito: el aristócrata deberá pasar el resto de sus días en el hotel Metropol, microcosmos de la sociedad rusa y conspicuo exponente del lujo y la decadencia que el nuevo régimen se ha propuesto erradicar.

Story
Ésta es la historia de un hombre, tres mujeres, una revolución y un tesoro. La revolución fue la de México en tiempos de Emiliano Zapata y Francisco Villa. El tesoro fueron quince mil monedas de oro de a veinte pesos de las denominadas maximilianos, robadas en un banco de Ciudad Juárez el 8 de mayo de 1911. El hombre se llamaba Martín Garret Ortiz y era un joven ingeniero de minas español. Todo empezó para él ese mismo día, cuando desde su hotel oyó un primer disparo lejano. Salió a la calle para ver qué ocurría y a partir de ese momento su vida cambió para siempre.

Ryder, Garrett, Kenzo, and Diesel - The Vipers. Their deals are as sordid as their business, and their reputation is enough to bring a grown man to his knees, forcing him to beg for mercy. They are not people you mess with, yet my dad did. The old man ran up a debt with them and then sold me to cover his losses. Yes, sold me. They own me now. I’m theirs in every sense of the word. But I’ve never been meek and compliant.

Story
Obituary writer Nadine Barbault doesn’t mind being called “Lady Death”. It suits the ice queen persona she’s cultivated to survive the fast-paced Toronto Herald. So when Nadine learns that famous (and reclusive) author Dot Voline has died, she doesn’t hesitate to run the obituary…only to discover that Dot is very much alive. Nadine’s screw-up has brought Wesley Chen of the rival Spear no end of joy—she’s been a thorn in his extremely ambitious side for years. But the renewed interest in Dot also surfaced chatter about a mysterious past scandal.

Story
Hockey coach Ashley Jaswal doesn't take nonsense from anyone … except her overbearing and superstitious family. They believe she's a good luck charm for her brother Jas, the newest Vancouver Canucks draft pick, forcing Ash to attend all his games as he rises up the NHL ranks, sacrificing her personal life (not that she has one—who decided hockey season needed to be 10 months long anyway?). Ash also clashes with Jas’s teammate, Canucks captain Devin Snyder.

Asher Donovan is a living legend—the darling of the Premier League, the (arguably) greatest footballer in the world. But his reckless antics and recent team transfer have caused much controversy, and when his feud with his rival-turned-teammate costs them a championship, they’re forced to “bond” during off-season cross-training. Surviving the summer shouldn’t be hard…until Asher meets their new trainer. She’s beautiful, talented, and no matter how hard he tries, he can’t take his mind off her.
