About the Book

UN RASCACIELOS ÚNICO EN EL MUNDO.
UN TERRIBLE ERROR DE CÁLCULO.

UNA AMENAZA INMINENTE.

Un thriller vertiginoso de la mano de Pedro Torrijos, el autor con millones de lectores en las redes sociales.


#LaBrasaTorrijos

Nueva York, 1977. En el centro de la ciudad acaba de inaugurarse el flamante edificio de Citicorp. Su peculiar estructura ha roto las reglas de la arquitectura moderna y lo ha convertido en uno de los rascacielos más reconocibles del skyline de Manhattan, pero pocos saben el desafío que este proyecto ha supuesto para Bill LeMessurier. Desde que aceptó el encargo seis años atrás, la gravedad no ha sido el único obstáculo que ha tenido que superar para alzar esta gigantesca torre de acero, hormigón y cristal.

Sin embargo, una llamada inesperada está a punto de poner en jaque su reputación. Una estudiante de Ingeniería estructural ha detectado un posible error de cálculo y todo apunta a que el edificio podría desmoronarse causando una catástrofe inimaginable. LeMessurier no quiere admitir su error, pero la proximidad de una gran tormenta precipita una cuenta atrás que amenaza la ciudad entera.
Con una trama impecable y un ritmo en constante aceleración, Pedro Torrijos firma un thriller lleno de tensión que te mantiene en vilo hasta la última página.
About the Author: Pedro Torrijos (Madrid, 1975) es arquitecto, escritor y periodista cultural, además de un gran contador de historias. Desde 2011 explota su faceta divulgadora en distintos canales y formatos.

Colaborador en la Cadena SER, El País o Yokorobu, sus relatos también se han escuchado en RNE, Podium Podcast y el Museo ICO.

Autor de #LaBrasaTorrijos, con un millón de lectores en Twitter e Instagram, fue finalista en la XXVI edición de los Premios Zapping en la categoría de Mejor iniciativa en la red y seleccionado para el Pabellón de España en la Bienal de Arquitectura de Venecia en 2021.

La tormenta de cristal es su primera novela para adultos, un thriller inspirado en la historia real del Citicorp Center, el rascacielos neoyorquino que estuvo a punto de derrumbarse.
