Welches grausame Erlebnis machte Hannibal Lecter zum blutrünstigen "Kannibalen"? Wie wurde der hochbegabte Junge zur berühmt-berüchtigten Bestie? Thomas Harris führt uns in die Kindheit des genialen, äußerst kultivierten und monströsen Serienkillers. Er enthüllt den Albtraum, den der Elfjährige kurz vor Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs erlebt und der ihn bald zu eigenen Gräueltaten treibt.

Seit sechs Jahren wird der Massenmörder Dr. Hannibal Lecter in der geschlossenen Abteilung einer psychiatrischen Klinik hermetisch von der Außenwelt ferngehalten. Trotzdem weiß er mehr über einen fieberhaft gesuchten Serienkiller als das FBI. Die junge Agentin Clarice Starling soll ihn zur Mitarbeit bewegen - doch der Preis ist erschreckend hoch.

Thomas Harris, the creator of Hannibal Lecter, author of The Silence of the Lambs and Red Dragon, returns after 13 years with a new book. Cari Mora is an absorbing story about evil, greed, and a dark obsession - it's Harris at his finest!

Hannibal Lecter è uno psichiatra geniale, un uomo colto e raffinato. Ed è anche un pericoloso psicopatico e un feroce assassino. Ma è l'unica risorsa che ha a disposizione la giovane agente dell'FBI Clarice Starling per rintracciare Buffalo Bill, l'imprendibile "mostro" che scuoia le sue vittime. Il dottor Lecter decide di aiutarla, ma al prezzo di uno scambio perverso: le consegnerà Buffalo Bill in tempo per salvare la sua ultima preda unicamente se Clarice accetterà di svelargli ciò che da anni tormenta la sua anima...

Cari Mora uprchla před válkou v rodné Kolumbii do USA a pod dohledem imigračního úřadu žije na dočasné povolení pobytu v Miami. Aby se uživila, stará se o luxusní sídlo přímo na pláži Miami Beach. Nemá ale tušení, že pod domem je ukryto půl tuny ryzího zlata a jistý Hans-Peter Schneider po něm už celé roky slídí. Krásná Cari, která pro zvrhlého Schneidera představuje potenciálně zajímavou kořist sama o sobě, je teď zdá se, jedinou překážkou. Jejich nevyhnutelný střet však možná nebude mít tak jasného vítěze, jak se na první pohled zdá.

Clarice Starling steckt in einer Krise seit sie eine Drogendealerin erschossen hat. Doch dann wird sie wieder auf Hannibal Lecter angesetzt, der vor sieben Jahren aus dem Hochsicherheitstrakt entflohen ist. Währenddessen träumt sein großer Gegenspieler Mason Verger von Rache und benutzt Clarice als menschlichen Köder, um an Hannibal Lecter heranzukommen.

Hannibal Lecters erster Auftritt. Ein Killer verbreitet Angst und Schrecken in Florida. Er hat schon zehn Menschen umgebracht, und die Mordserie reißt nicht ab. Wer wäre besser geeignet, ein Psychogramm des Gesuchten anzufertigen, als der Psychiater und Massenmörder, den das FBI drei Jahre zuvor fassen konnte: Dr. Hannibal Lecter.

Venticinque milioni di dollari in lingotti d'oro appartenuti a Pablo Escobar sono sepolti in una grande e misteriosa villa nella baia di Miami Beach. Il bottino fa gola a molti, gente senza scrupoli che tiene d'occhio la casa. Primo tra tutti Hans-Peter Schneider, un uomo perverso e pericoloso che vive delle fantasie malate di altri uomini ricchi. Cari Mora è una ragazza colombiana di venticinque anni con un passato drammatico, scampata alla violenza del suo paese. È l'unica persona ad aver accettato di fare la custode di quella villa.

Thomas Harris ist zurück und schickt einen Killer ins Rennen, der erneut für schlaflose Nächte sorgt! Die Schreie einer Frau sind Musik in seinen Ohren. Er ist groß, blass, haarlos und wie ein Reptil liebt er die Wärme. Menschen begegnen ihm mit Angst und Ekel. Er ist daran gewöhnt. Doch wenn sie das Monster in ihm erkennen, ist es meist zu spät. Dann betteln sie um einen schnellen Tod und er genießt den Schmerz in ihren Gesichtern. Unheimlich spannend gelesen von Achim Buch.
