Maggie Stiefvater, autora cuyos libros han vendido más de 5.000.000 de ejemplares, debuta en la literatura adulta con una historia basada en hechos reales e impregnada de la inquietante magia de los Apalaches. Una ambiciosa novela con una heroína inquebrantable, un romance imposible y un hotel (y un mundo) en peligro.En el Avallon, el verdadero poder es de aquellos que saben ver y escuchar... Enero de 1942. Cuando exigen al lujoso hotel Avallon colaborar en la guerra alojando a trescientos diplomáticos y simpatizantes nazis, la prioridad de June Hudson, la directora, es convencer a sus trabajadores de seguir como si nada, y sin perder la sonrisa. Sin embargo, también debe lidiar con Tucker Minnick, el agente del FBI cuya investigación para destapar los secretos que guardan los alemanes amenaza el delicado equilibro que ella se desvive por mantener. A medida que oscuras alianzas y emociones inesperadas van resquebrajando el brillante barniz del hotel, June se ve obligada a reconocer el verdadero precio de la riqueza. Al fin y al cabo, solo ella sabe el sacrificio necesario para contentar a todos: a su personal, a las autoridades y, sobre todo, a las tumultuosas aguas dulces que discurren por el corazón del hotel y que nacen en los mismos montes Apalaches. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION "Maggie Stiefvater is an exceptional talent, and The Listeners is a marvel of storytelling. I really couldn't have loved it more." --Chris Whitaker, author of All the Colors of the Dark "A novel that will remind readers of why they fell in love with reading in the first place." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review #1 New York Times bestselling novelist Maggie Stiefvater dazzles in this mesmerizing portrait of an irresistible heroine, an unlikely romance, and a hotel--and a world--in peril. January 1942. The Avallon Hotel & Spa has always offered elegant luxury in the wilds of West Virginia, its mountain sweetwater washing away all of high society's troubles. Local girl-turned-general manager June Porter Hudson has guided the Avallon skillfully through the first pangs of war. The Gilfoyles, the hotel's aristocratic owners, have trained her well. But when the family heir makes a secret deal with the State Department to fill the hotel with captured Axis diplomats, June must persuade her staff--many of whom have sons and husbands heading to the front lines--to offer luxury to Nazis. With a smile. Meanwhile FBI Agent Tucker Minnick, whose coal tattoo hints at an Appalachian past, presses his ears to the hotel's walls, listening for the diplomats' secrets. He has one of his own, which is how he knows that June's balancing act can have dangerous consequences: the sweetwater beneath the hotel can threaten as well as heal. June has never met a guest she couldn't delight, but the diplomats are different. Without firing a single shot, they have brought the war directly to her. As clashing loyalties crack the Avallon's polished veneer, June must calculate the true cost of luxury.

Great story and wonderful pictures
I’ve been trying to find books my son (6) would enjoy reading. He's asked me to read this one to him every night for like a week now. It’s a sweet story and the illustrations are beautiful. I’m really glad I bought it.

Award Winning Teaching Book
Format: Hardcover
This story has a lovely story that is a great teaching moment for young children. I enjoyed the illustrations and I find these stories about real life situations of other people in other circumstances other than your own offer great teaching moments for the young readers....Recommend you read it to your young children and it gives you a good opportunity to explain to your children that even those who have much less than you do....but, have love and family are wealthy in their own way....and to express all types of families exist and are all just as important and your individual family is to you. Important that they are getting more books out that offer important lessons about life to young people...to grow their empathy for others...and caring feelings for others from a young age. Recommend
