The Devil's Menagerie

Więcej o książce

The Devil's Menagerie is the new novel by master thriller writer Louis Charbonneau. In the tradition of Querelle, by Jean Genet, The Devil's Menagerie features the handiwork of a vicious serial killer whose trail has been cold many long years. Eight years ago in Allied-occupied Germany, underneath a bridge obscured by a night fog, the raging heart of a young American soldier - one of thousands of faces in the ranks - exploded in a brutal, seemingly incomprehensible murder that remains unsolved. Now, that soldier has secretly returned from overseas to find his former wife married to another man, his own child being raised by a stranger - and the rage that still burns inside him escalating once again to an uncontrollable level. As the killer's diabolical plan unfolds, only one person can stop him - and she is not even aware that he exists. The Devil's Menagerie is a chilling portrait of a killer who is also the perfect soldier, and whose never ending search for gratification forces his victims to face, at the cost of their own souls, the very worst in themselves, as well as the devilish brew inside himself.
