Portrait of Fred Vargas

Fred Vargas is the acclaimed French crime novelist celebrated for her atmospheric mysteries that blend folklore, history, and contemporary investigation. Her work, most notably the Commissaire Adamsberg series, is distinguished by its lyrical prose, eccentric characters, and richly drawn sense of place. Vargas's background as a medieval historian infuses her stories with intellectual depth and a distinctive, almost otherworldly tone that has earned her the reputation of a modern master of European crime fiction.

Her novels have garnered numerous international awards and a devoted readership for their originality and wit. Translated into English with care and nuance, Vargas's books offer readers a compelling balance of suspense and humanity, where intuition often proves as vital as evidence. Each title invites discovery-an immersive journey through the shadows of history and the complexities of the human mind.

Although the case is far outside his jurisdiction, Adamsberg agrees to investigate the strange happenings in a village terrorised by wild rumours and ancient feuds.Trade ReviewThis latest outing for the offbeat Commissaire Adamsberg is [Vargas'] best * Independent *After decades in which crime fiction in French was dominated by the Belgian author Georges Simenon, it has an indisputable new star in Fred Vargas -- Joan Smith * Sunday Times *Vargas depicts brilliantly a rural community riven with superstition, where class distinctions have existed for centuries * The Times *An early contender for outstanding crime novel of the year * Sunday Times *A glorious mix of myth, quirky observation and gallic humour * Sunday Telegraph *

    Book SynopsisThe opera singer Sophia Siméonidis wakes up one morning to discover that a tree has appeared overnight in the garden of her Paris house. Intrigued and unnerved, she turns to her neighbours: Vandoosler, an ex-cop, and three impecunious historians, Mathias, Marc and Lucien - the three evangelists. They agree to dig around the tree and see if something has been buried there. They find nothing but soil. A few weeks later, Sophia disappears and her body is found burned to ashes in a car. Who killed the opera singer? Her husband, her ex-lover, her best friend, her niece? They all seem to have a motive. Vandoosler and the three evangelists set out to find the truth.Trade ReviewThe Three Evangelists is a strange mix of the sinister, the bizarre and the surreal; her characters seldom behave like ordinary people, and her mysteries do not follow the usual rules of crime fiction. Yet these curiously assembled elements coalesce into a gripping, unsettling whole that stays in the mind far longer than most novels of the genre. It tantalises from page one -- Marcel Berlins * The Times *A Vargas novel is as good as a trip to Paris. The style has the same hyper-real quality as all her writing - the real world, but filtered through a strange prism - but it's the plotting that really hits the spot: ingenious and eccentric -- Barry Forshaw * Daily Express *A truly original talent, creating situations and characters like nothing else in contemporary crime fiction... This novel is a delight, written in a wonderfully wry tone of voice, and its plot twists will defy the most alert reader -- Joan Taylor * Sunday Times *One of France's most original crime writers... her characters are eccentric but appealing and the mystery is enjoyably hard to solve * Sunday Telegraph *Original...plenty to enjoy * Times Literary Supplement *

    Book SynopsisBetween 1943 and 2003 nine people have been stabbed to death with a most unusual weapon: a trident. In each case, arrests were made, suspects confessed their crimes and were sentenced to life in prison. One slightly worrying detail: each presumed murderer lost consciousness during the night of the crime and has no recollection of it. Commissaire Adamsberg is convinced all the murders are the work of one person, the terrifying Judge Fulgence. Years before, Adamsberg''s own brother had been the principal suspect in a similar case and avoided prison only thanks to Adamsberg''s help.History repeats itself when Adamsberg, who is temporarily based in Quebec for a training mission, is accused of having savagely murdered a young woman he had met. In order to prove his innocence, Adamsberg must go on the run from the Canadian police and find Judge Fulgence.Winner of the 2007 Duncan Lawrie International Dagger for The Three Evangelists.Trade ReviewNo one writes crime novels quite like the French author Fred Vargas... another compelling read by this most original of novelists -- Susanna Yager * Sunday Telegraph *Vargas has a wonderfully offbeat imagination that makes each of her novels a refreshing delight -- Peter Guttridge * Observer *Establishes Vargas beyond doubt as a cool, clever, original and deeply humane crime writer -- Heather O’Donoghue * Times Literary Supplement *It is enthralling and great fun from start to finish... all done with great verve, wit and invention -- Allan Massie * Scotsman *There is a haunting quality to Vargas's writing -- Kath Murphy * Scotland on Sunday *

Al poco, una mujer dice haber enviado una carta que la muerta había escrito a un tal Amadée Masfauré..., cuyo padre se habría suicidado dejando un signo similar. Las sospechas se confirman al comprobar que ambas muertes tenían algo más en común: las dos víctimas formaban parte de una trágica expedición a una remota e inexplorada isla de Islandia, diez años antes;Un extraño club de admiradores de Robespierre, viejos rencores familiares, pistas falsas, reminiscencias de antiguos mitos nórdicos;, y la imbatible sagacidad de Adamsberg y su brigada son los ingredientes de la magnífica nueva obra de la reina de la novela negra europea.

    Book SynopsisLa obra más ambiciosa y lograda de la reina de la novela negra europea.Cuando sale la reclusa, su novela decimocuarta y la novena protagonizada por el intuitivo comisario Jean-Baptiste Adamsberg, colma las expectativas creadas por esa obra maestra del género que es Tiempos de hielo . [...] La novela, de la que me resisto a contarles más por no chafarles la compleja y apasionante trama, es, además de la historia de una venganza, un alegato feminista contra la violencia y los abusos.MANUEL RODRÍGUEZ RIVERO, BabeliaTengo a Fred Vargas como una de las mejores novelistas francesas del momento en cualquier categoría y género.FERNANDO SAVATERLa autora más interesante del género policiaco en el presente.JOSÉ MARÍA GUELBENZUEl comisario Jean-Baptiste Adamsberg, tras unas merecidas vacaciones en Islandia, se interesa de inmediato a su regreso a Francia por la muerte de tres ancianos a causa de las picaduras de una Loxosceles rufescens, más conocida como la reclusa: una araña esquiva y venenosa, pero en ningún caso letal. Adamsberg, que parece ser el único intrigado por el extraño suceso, comienza a investigar a espaldas de su equipo, enredándose inadvertidamente en una delicada y compleja trama, llena de elaborados equívocos y profundas conexiones, cuyos hilos se remontan a la Edad Media. Un caso elusivo y contradictorio que se escapa a cada momento de las manos del comisario, haciéndole regresar a la casilla de salida. Solo sus intuiciones, tan preclaras como dolorosas, serán capaces de devolverle la confianza que necesita para salir ileso de la red tendida por la más perfecta tejedora...Cuando sale la reclusa es sin duda la obra más ambiciosa de Fred Vargas, la reina indiscutible de la novela negra europea. En ella se entrecruzan con maestría todos los temas que han convertido la publicación de cada una de sus novelas en un auténtico acontecimiento literario, tanto para la crítica como para los lectores: el medievo, la arqueología, los mitos, el mundo de los animales y, por supuesto, la descripción detallada y poderosa de los oscuros laberintos del alma humana.
