Hello friends, good vibes everyone.

Well we come to the fourth book and the truth is that I am enjoying doing these reviews because it is a way to publicize certain books and at the same time increase the desire to find more books, read them and continue showing this enriching and cultural hobby.
Today's book is the lighthouse, it may be one of the least known that I have in my collection but it has undoubtedly been one of the ones that has managed to catch me the most. Yes, it is a bit long, the edition that I have consists of 526 pages but it really is worth every minute that we are going to spend reading it.
- Resumen // Summary
This book is set on an place called Combe Island, located off the coast of Cornwall, UK. In ancient times it was a center that was very suitable for piracy and slavery. This is a private island that has been owned by the Holcombe family since around the 16th century where, for some time, certain elite personalities come to rest or simply disappear from everyone's eye.
The point here is that a guest came to the island who is quite regular, a world famous writer named Nathan Oliver who is highly hated by all the other residents of the island. The story gets murky the moment our writer appears dead and that is where Inspector Adam Dalgliesh appears, the person in charge of clarifying the case.
As the great fear that this death generated on the island is not enough, there is a great virus that has the entire island subjected to a strict quarantine where no one can enter or leave it.
The author of this book, P. D. James, was known as the "Lady of Crime", worked for the British security services, for the police department and for the Ministry of the Interior where she was acquiring all the knowledge about the methods police officers that eventually led her to write great works like the one I am showing you today.
- Opinión.
Yes, it is a good book and it is recommended. The plot on many occasions catches you in such a way that you want to continue reading page after page until you finish it. But it is also true that in certain passages the story becomes a bit slow and with an accentuation in the details that for some could be a bit excessive, it was not my case fortunately.
As for the characters, they are approached in such a way that you get to know them all, from the protagonists to the secondary characters, from their emotions, fears, tastes, feelings, etc. As I said, the details in this book will not be lacking; When you read the description of the places you can imagine them perfectly, from what they are like to the smells that may be in them.
In conclusion, if you like crime thrillers full of murders and suspense, this book is the one for you. In general terms, it is a very enjoyable read and a fast-paced story.
¡Un abrazo a todos, nos leemos en la próxima!
Well my people for today is everything, ihope you liked it, see you in the fifth book.
¡A hug to all, we read in the next one!
