Here is not merely an extraordinary first but an extraordinary suspense novel by the highest professional standards; and you have an evening of incomparable excitement ahead of you. Levin combines great talent for pure novel writing with strict whodunit tricks as dazzling as anything brought off by Ellery Queen or Agatha Christie
Nail-biting stuff

Notă biografică

The genre-defining works of novelist-playwright Ira Levin (1929-2007) include such indelible titles as Rosemary's Baby, The Stepford Wives, The Boys from Brazil, and Deathtrap--the fifth longest-running play in Broadway history. At home in nearly every genre--horror (Rosemary's Baby), crime (Edgar-winning A Kiss Before Dying), science fiction (This Perfect Day), comedy (No Time For Sergeants), even a Broadway musical (Drat! The Cat!)--Levin's enduring works continue to resonate with readers and audiences, serving as iconic cultural and creative touchstones. Learn more at Levin's official website, IraLevin.org.
