Adira ao LibraryThing para descobrir se irá gostar deste livro. Ainda não há conversas na Discussão sobre este livro. Pretty taut little thriller. First book of Brown's that I've read. Brisk read, finished most of it in one sitting. ( ) En esta rarísima pero cuidada edición, Brown desentraña los oscuros impulsos que motivan a un mediocre impresor para convertirse en un asesino serial. Haciendo gala de su pasión por los más mínimos detalles, y mostrándonos en cada capítulo los puntos de vista de los diversos personajes, nos lleva de la mano hacia una más de sus inesperadas conclusiones. Una novela totalmente disfrutable. Unsettling story takes us inside the mind of a cold-blooded, calculating, remorseless killer, as well as into the minds of his victims and near-victims. Definitely not one of Brown's lighter entertainments - this one will chill you a bit. The killer's thought processes are fascinating. But there is one little thing the killer didn't think of.... sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
"A masterfully delivered tale of an inconspicuous citizen who [finds] murder simple . . . The climax packs a brilliant wallop." --Chicago Tribune Relentlessly twisting and blackly funny, this noir novel by Edgar Award winner Fredric Brown is a portrait of a seemingly upstanding print shop owner in mid-twentieth-century Los Angeles who has successfully murdered his wife--and is now feeling quite confident about his criminal skills. As victims start falling like dominoes, this fast-paced tale works its way to a memorable end, marking a masterwork by this celebrated author of mysteries and crime thrillers. "A real pro . . . a natural storyteller." --The New York Times Book Review Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
