Book Description
Eine Reihe von ungeklärten Todesfällen, scheinbar unzusammenhängend, jedoch mit einer auffälligen Gemeinsamkeit: Sie erinnern alle an Morde aus der klassischen Kriminalliteratur.
Vor Jahren veröffentlichte Malcolm Kershaw, ein Buchhändler und Liebhaber von Kriminalromanen, eine Liste der perfekten Morde der Literaturgeschichte auf dem Blog des Buchladens "Old Devils Bookstore". Mittlerweile gehört ihm der Laden, und die Liste ist längst vergessen. Doch plötzlich steht FBI-Agentin Gwen Mulvey vor seiner Tür. Sie untersucht eine Serie von Morden, die auf erschreckende Weise an Malcolms Liste erinnern. Doch Gwen ist nicht die einzige, die sich für den eigenbrötlerischen Buchhändler interessiert. Im Schatten lauert ein Killer, der jeden Schritt von Malcolm beobachtet und ein Geheimnis aus seiner Vergangenheit kennt. Vielschichtig, unvorhersehbar und mitreißend – der "New York Times"-Bestseller von Peter Swanson bietet Krimiunterhaltung auf höchstem Niveau!
