«Atrapa e incomoda: las claves del thriller y el noir laten con fuerza en La sangre'. --Susana Martín Gijón

«García Ballesteros nos enfrenta a nuestra naturaleza más oscura. Crea una trama perturbadora y asfixiante y la alimenta de todas aquellas pulsiones humanas que pueden sacar lo mejor y lo peor de cada uno'. --Óscar Reboiras, autor de El caso Salgueiro

Nueva Orleans, 1897. Es la popular noche de Mardi Gras, y Alexander Le Bois, heredero de una de las familias más importantes de la ciudad, empieza a manifestar unos extraños síntomas durante el gran baile celebrado en Ópera Francesa. Isabella, su joven esposa nacida en Cuba y criada en Oviedo, busca desesperadamente ayuda y solo encuentra a Markus, un médico negro sin mucho crédito ni acceso a la medicina reservada a los blancos.

Cuando la misteriosa dolencia de Alexandre empieza a difundirse sin piedad por Nueva Orleans, el inspector Morgan De Sanctis y el doctor Schmidt, responsable del control de epidemias, sospechan que el mal no afecta a todos por igual. Pero nadie imagina que tras su avance se oculta una verdad más oscura y aterradora que cualquier enfermedad.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

THE NEW PHENOMENON IN GOTHIC THRILLERS A powerful family saga. A dark journey to Mississippi and Oviedo at the end of the 19th century.

"García Ballesteros makes us confront our darkest beings. He creates a disturbing, suffocating plot and feeds it with all those human impulses capable of bringing out the best and worst in each of us." --Óscar Reboiras, author of El caso Salgueiro

New Orleans, 1897. It is the popular night of Mardi Gras, and Alexander Le Bois, heir to one of the most important families in the city, begins to show strange symptoms during the grand ball held at the French Opera. Isabella, his young wife born in Cuba and raised in Oviedo, desperately seeks help and finds only Markus, a black doctor with little credibility or access to medicine reserved for whites.

When Alexandre's mysterious illness begins to spread mercilessly throughout New Orleans, Inspector Morgan De Sanctis and Dr. Schmidt, responsible for controlling epidemics, suspect that the disease does not affect everyone equally. But no one imagines that behind its spread lies a truth darker and more terrifying than any disease.
