The only thing she fears is herself. Antonia is the lynchpin of the Red Queen project, created to work behind the scenes to solve the most devious and dangerous crimes.

More than two million copies sold in Spain alone. Sunday Times - Best Thriller Books of the Year 'A Spanish spin on The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo . . . A female Sherlock Holmes' - The Times 'Fizzes with energy . . . echoes of Lisbeth Salander, but the crackling interplay . . . adds an extra layer of originality... sparkling' Financial Times You've never met anyone like her . . . Antonia Scott is special. Very special. She is not a policewoman or a lawyer. She has never wielded a weapon or carried a badge, and yet, she has solved dozens of crimes. But it's been awhile since Antonia left her attic in Madrid. The things she has lost are much more important to her than the things awaiting her outside. She also doesn't receive visitors. That's why she really, really doesn't like it when she hears unknown footsteps coming up the stairs. Whoever it is, Antonia is sure that they are coming to look for her. And she likes that even less. Praise for Red Queen: 'Often compared with Lisbeth Salander . . . Antonia Scott looks destined to leave every bit as lasting an impression.' - Daily Mail 'One of the most extravagantly entertaining novels I’ve ever read. It's an electrifying serial-killer thriller . . . I loved every word.' - A.J. Finn, bestselling author of The Woman in the Window

This book brings together clear and concise definitions of 33 key terms used by the great educational thinker, Paulo Freire. From ‘critical consciousness’ to ‘concientization’ and from ‘oppressed’ to the ‘banking model of education’ Freire’s concepts and ways of understanding education are as relevant today as they ever were. The critical definitions attend to the theoretical and practical implications of each term allowing readers to appreciate the philosophical and emancipatory nature of Freire’s work and learn how these ideas can be applied in educational, social, and political setting to drive social change. Each term is explained in relation to Freire’s wider body of work, noting the nuances and meanings that developed through his career as pedagogue. The book shows the significance of Freire’s legacy, and offers an opportunity to put into practice, rethink, and remake his proposal for a radical model of education.
