Antonio Hill writes crime fiction set in Barcelona, featuring Inspector Hector Salgado, a police detective of Argentinian descent. The Summer of Dead Toys (2011) introduced Salgado and became a hit in Spain before being translated into English. The Good Suicides (2014) continued the series, with Salgado investigating a string of apparent suicides connected to a corporate retreat.

Hill’s Barcelona is a modern, cosmopolitan city with layers of social tension beneath the surface. Salgado is a complex protagonist whose personal life, including his strained relationship with his teenage son and his Argentinian roots, runs through the investigations. The series has been compared to Scandinavian crime fiction for its atmospheric plotting and willingness to examine social issues through detective stories.
