The Inspector Salgado series is set in Barcelona and follows Hector Salgado, a detective with the Mossos d’Esquadra (Catalan police). The Summer of Dead Toys (2011) opens with a teenager’s death during a storm, leading Salgado into an investigation that uncovers dark secrets among Barcelona’s upper class. The book balances police procedure with Salgado’s personal struggles, including his complicated relationship with his ex-wife and son.

The Good Suicides (2014) sends Salgado to investigate a series of deaths among employees of a company that held a team-building retreat in the countryside. The corporate setting and group dynamics add a different kind of tension to the second book. Both novels use Barcelona as more than just a backdrop, making the city’s neighborhoods and social divides part of the story.
