«Pionera en la novela negra en dar protagonismo a la mujer y una de las autoras más traducidas en este género. Rompió el estereotipo enarbolado por policías (masculinos) arrasados por la vida y abrió camino a otras escritoras». --RTVE La presidenta de la Generalitat Valenciana, Vita Castellá, aparece muerta en la habitación de un lujoso hotel de Madrid. La comprometida situación exige que quede oficialmente descartado un posible asesinato y que la investigación encalle, de manera que el partido en el poder, al que la víctima pertenece, ha activado todos los recursos y ha hecho sonar todos los teléfonos de las altas esferas que le puedan ayudar a ganar tiempo. Por su parte, el jefe de la policía de la Comunitat Valenciana decide ayudar al ministro del Interior y al director de la Policía Nacional, Juan Quesada Montilla, en su misión: despistar a las autoridades. Para ello ponen el caso en manos de dos inspectoras novatas y peculiares: las hermanas Berta y Marta Miralles. Radicalmente opuestas entre sí, deberán enfrentarse juntas a un turbio mundo de intereses. Alfaguara Negra se enorgullece de acoger en su catálogo a «la gran dama de la novela negra española» (El Confidencial ) con este primer caso apasionante. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION THE FIRST CASE OF BERTA AND MARTA MIRALLES, TWO INSPECTORS THAT MAKE HISTORY. A great noir novel, bold and shocking, crafted by a laureate author with over three million readers worldwide. A new novel by the recipient of the Planeta, Nadal, Pepe Carvalho, José Luis Sampedro, Femenino Lumen, Fregene Internazionale, Women's Fiction Festival at Matera, Grinzane Cavour, and Raymond Chandler awards. "Pioneer in noir novel, in giving prominence to female characters, and one of the most translated authors of the genre. She has broken the stereotype brandished by policemen devastated by life, and has opened new roads to other writers." --RTVE The President of the Generalitat Valenciana, Vita Castellá, is found dead in a luxurious hotel room in Madrid. Such a compromising situation demands that the possibility of murder gets officially ruled out and the investigations cease, and so, those in the ruling party, which the victim had been a member of, have activated every resource and phoned everyone in the highest spheres that might help them buy some time. Meanwhile, the Chief of Police of the Comunitat Valenciana decides to help the Minister of Interior and the National Police Director, Juan Quesada Montilla, in their mission: distract the authorities. For such a purpose, they leave the case in the hands of two new and peculiar inspectors, sisters Berta and Marta Miralles. Radically different from each other, together they will face a shady world of hidden agendas. Alfaguara Negra is proud to incorporate "the great lady of Spanish noir novel" (El Confidencial) to its catalogue with this first exciting case.

Built for people who love nugget ice!
Color: Piano Black
If you love nugget ice, this machine delivers exactly what you’re hoping for - soft, chewable, restaurant-quality pellet ice at home, consistently and quickly.
The biggest differentiator is speed and volume. It produces up to 35 lbs per day, and the first batch is ready fast. The ice texture is true crushed pebble/nugget style - not hard cubes disguised as “pellet” ice. It’s ideal for iced coffee, sparkling water, cocktails, and entertaining.
The stainless steel exterior feels premium and modern on the countertop.
Noise level is typical for a countertop ice maker, noticeable but not disruptive. It’s not silent, but it’s absolutely reasonable for the output.

Short life span
Color: Piano Black
We really liked this ice maker. The good-the water reservoir and ice basket are larger than in our last one, so we only refilled this one maybe once a day (family of 4). The ice didn't build up on the side and trigger the ice maker full shut off like our previous one. It is quieter than our last one too, and seemed to make ice just as fast.
The bad-it doesn't turn itself back on as the ice melts and refills the water reservoir. The really bad-we've only used distilled and RO water in it. We've been fighting with it for a couple of months now to get it to make ice. We've cleaned it over and over with the cleaning solution. We also cleaned the vents as suggested with a vacuum and compressed air. It's to the point that it literally makes 2 ice cubes every time we start it, and that's it. We bought it 6 months, and we're giving up on it. We'll try another brand.

Almost Perfect
Color: Piano Black
Came from another ice maker and I miss two things:
1) size. This unit is tiny. It might be good if it’s just for you and maybe one other person, but for a family of four where everyone uses ice for their drinks and water bottles around the clock, this was constantly empty and needing more water.
2) the ability to start making ice on its own after there’s enough water. It has a sensor to tell you when it’s full of ice and it has a sensor to tell you when the water level is low, but it doesn’t have a sensor to tell it when the water has been refilled. You have to push the “ice making” button twice to get it to restart. Not a huge problem, but if you’re like me and leave your ice machine on 24hrs a day, you could come back to an empty ice machine after the ice in the basket melts. With my old ice maker, the machine would sense the water was low and stop. But then all the ice that was already made and in the basket would melt and fill the reservoir again and the machine would sense that and start back up on making a new batch
small gripes, I know. Overall, it’s a nice, cute little ice maker and my kids love nugget ice.

Compact, lightweight, and useful milk frother.
I ordered the Electric Handheld Milk Frother in the Starlight Black color. I don’t drink coffee, let alone fancy coffees where I would normally need a milk frother, so I bought this for one reason and one reason only: scrambled eggs. I make a ton of scrambled eggs.
Now, I can whisk eggs by hand just as well as the next person, and I’m not entirely convinced a frother whips them better than I can, but regular whisks take up a ton of room in my drawers and this does not. I really just wanted something compact that could whip my eggs into a nice frothy consistency without taking up much space. Even better, this one looks nice enough to just leave sitting on the counter where I can grab it easily. I will note that although I can hand whisk easily enough, there are many people who cannot due to arthritis or other issues, and this whisk is a brilliant tool for them.
If you actually want to use a frother for other things, this one does perform very well. It has three speeds and comes with three different attachments: a spring whisk for latte and cappuccino foam, a balloon whisk for eggs and cream, and a hook whisk for blending protein powders or mixes without lumps. I actually ended up using the hook whisk while making pot roast. I mixed the seasoning packet with water using this frother and it blended everything perfectly with no lumps at all.
The frother itself is lightweight, pretty quiet, and very easy to clean. The attachments detach easily and just need a quick rinse under soapy water. It also comes with a magnetic wireless charging dock that uses the included USB-C cable. The docking connection is simple and secure, and charging has been completely hassle-free so far.
The LED display shows battery levels at 25%, 50%, 75%, and 100%, which is useful for knowing when it needs to be charged. Overall, it’s a simple, convenient kitchen gadget that does exactly what I wanted it to do and I am quite satisfied with it.
