di Joe Hill (Autore)

Headline, 2010

'A remarkable achievement' THE GUARDIAN 'A fantastical work of crime fiction' THE TELEGRAPH 'Hill writes with a sure hand' HARLAN COBEN Once, Ig lived the life of the blessed: born into privilege, the second son of a renowned musician, the younger brother of a rising late-night TV star. Ig had security and wealth and a place in his community. He had it all, and more - he had the love of Merrin Williams, a love founded on shared daydreams, mutual daring and unlikely midsummer magic. Then beautiful, vivacious Merrin was gone - murdered under inexplicable circumstances - and Ig the suspect. He was never tried for the crime, but in the court of public opinion, he was and always would be guilty. Now lg is possessed of a terrible new power - he can hear people's deepest, darkest secrets - and he means to use it to find whoever killed Merrin and destroyed his life. Being good got him nowhere. It's time for a little revenge; it's time the devil had his due. Praise for Sunday Times bestselling author Joe Hill: 'A tour de force...absolutely fantastic' THE GUARDIAN 'Joe Hill gloriously resurrects the doorstop horror blockbuster for a startling new century' ALAN MOORE 'A soaring epic and painfully intimate. You won't be able to stop burning through the pages' PAUL TREMBLAY 'Perfection from start to finish' DAILY EXPRESS 'A commanding, captivating read' FINANCIAL TIMES 'Epic...a multi-layered, rich response to the horrors and hopes of living today' DAILY MAIL 'A wild, genre-defying journey, packed with all sorts of unexpected twists and turns' DAILY MIRROR 'A glorious, wild ride' NEW YORK TIMES if you like horror, dark fantasy or a thriller that's a little bit out there, give this a try' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ? 'Becomes a unique mystery, love story, coming of age tale that brings all the characters to vivid life. It's horrible, beautiful, emotional, darkly humorous and one of the best books I've read' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ? 'I am so pleased to say that Joe Hill has followed in the footsteps of his father, the King of horror (see what I did there?!), and has adopted a writing style that keeps you engrossed . . . your heart will be ripped from your chest and squeezed until you sob over the pages of the book' Goodreads reviewer, ? ? ? ? ?
