Katzenbach se introduce en la agitada mente de Francis, demostrando un gran conocimiento del lado oscuro de la psique humana y ofreciéndonos un thriller tan tenso y adictivo como El Psicoanalista . La historia del loco supuso uno de los grandes éxitos de su autor, el norteamericano John Katzenbach, autor de novelas tan conocidas como El psicoanalista. Su familia lo recluyó en el psiquiátrico tras una conducta imprevisible. Ahora Francis lleva una vida solitaria, pero un reencuentro en los terrenos de la clausurada institución remueve algo profundo en su mente agitada: unos recuerdos sombríos sobre los truculentos hechos que condujeron al cierre del W. S. Hospital, y el asesinato sin resolver de una joven enfermera, cuyo cadáver mutilado fue encontrado una noche después del cierre de las luces. La policía sospechó de un paciente, pero sólo ahora, con la reaparición del asesino, se conocerá la respuesta.

John Katzenbach demuestra su destreza para provocar la tensión en el lector, tal como hiciera en El psicoanalista. Francis Petrel tenía poco más de veinte años cuando su familia lo recluyó en el psiquiátrico tras una conducta imprevisible que culminó en una crisis. Pero un reencuentro en los terrenos de la clausurada institución remueve algo profundo en la mente agitada de Francis: unos recuerdos sombríos, que él creía haber enterrado, sobre los truculentos hechos que condujeron al cierre del Western State Hospital, y el asesinato sin resolver de una joven enfermera, cuyo cadáver mutilado fue encontrado una noche después de que se apagaran las luces. La policia sospecho de un paciente, pero solo ahora, con la reaparicion del asesino, se conocera la respuesta. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION It’s been twenty years since Western State Hospital was closed down and the last of its inmates reintegrated into society. Francis Petrel was barely out of his teens when his family committed him to the asylum, after his erratic behavior culminated in a terrifying outburst. Now middle-aged, he leads an aimless, solitary life housed in a cheap apartment, periodically tended to by his sisters, and perpetually medicated to quiet the chorus of voices in his head. But a reunion on the grounds of the shuttered institution stirs something deep in Francis’s troubled mind: dark memories he thought he had laid to rest, about the grisly events that led to Western State Hospital’s demise. It begins in 1979, when twenty-one-year-old Petrel descends into the state-run purgatory of an overcrowded, understaffed Massachusetts mental hospital. Surrounded by inmates roaming the halls like drugged zombies and raving behind locked doors, well-meaning orderlies, jaded nurses, and patronizing doctors, Francis finds friendship with a motley assortment of fellow patients: a would-be Napoleon, a wise ex-firefighter, and a man obsessed with battling imagined devils. But there’s nothing imaginary about the young nurse found sexually assaulted and brutally murdered late one night after lights-out. The police suspect an inmate, while patients whisper about visions of a white-shrouded “angel.” But the striking and mysterious prosecuting attorney who arrives to investigate has her own chilling theory—about the grim, telltale “signature” left on the victim’s body, a string of unsolved sex killings, and a very real devil who, by chance or design, has come to turn a madhouse into a slaughterhouse. Now, with the past creeping back to haunt his thoughts, and nothing but a pencil and the bare walls of his bleak apartment, Francis surrenders to the overwhelming need to tell the story of those nightmarish days. But because the crime was never solved, it’s a story doomed to remain unfinished. Until, like Francis’s long-buried recollections, the killer resurfaces . . . with a vengeance. A tour de force narrative journey through the eerily unpredictable mind of an utterly unusual hero, The Madman’s Tale will keep even the most astute thriller reader uncertain, unnerved, and unable to resist the tantalizing twists and turns of this fiendishly suspenseful shadow show.

A reporter is the only hope for an innocent man on death row for murder—while the real killer roams free—in this “riveting, provocative” thriller (Publishers Weekly). When burnt-out Miami reporter Matt Cowart receives a letter from a death row inmate pleading his innocence, he is tempted to dismiss it. But as the newspaperman digs into the case of Robert Earl Ferguson, an African American given the death penalty for the brutal slaying of a white girl, he begins to believe that Ferguson is the real victim of hate and prejudice. And if he doesn’t act, the wrong man is going to be executed. In the months that follow, Cowart’s investigative articles not only set Ferguson free, but make Cowart a celebrity and win him a Pulitzer Prize—and set in motion a new chain of unimaginable horror. For there is monster out there, and he is not through with killing. . . . Includes a preface by the author “Tense, exciting, and very, very real.” —The Detroit News “A classic cat-and-mouse story.” —Orlando Sentinel “Katzenbach is a skilled storyteller. . . . With admirable subtlety . . . [he] manages to address the disturbing issues of race and crime. . . . Powerful.” —Chicago Tribune “The criminal mind, racial bias, journalistic ego and the flawed fabric of the American criminal justice system are potent raw materials for psychological suspense master Katzenbach.” —Publishers Weekly “Terrific . . . His best book by far.” —Lawrence Block

A nice New England family has a dark secret in this “superb exercise in suspense” from the New York Times–bestselling author (TheNew York Times Book Review). Megan and Duncan Richards are no longer the radical activists they were in 1968. He’s a banker, and she works in real estate. They have a fine house, impeccable reputations, and three beautiful kids. Their past is safely stashed away until the day Duncan gets a call from the woman he’s spent decades trying to forget. Once, he knew her as Tanya, the charismatic leader of Northern California’s militant Phoenix Brigade. She had orchestrated their last robbery—a catastrophe that ended in bloodshed and murder. While Megan and Duncan escaped to their new lives, Tanya wasn’t so lucky. She’s spent eighteen years in prison . . . eighteen years planning the perfect revenge on her deserters. Now she’s free, and there isn’t a soul Megan and Duncan can turn to for help. What happens when a family is pushed to the brink? The answer “is the stuff of which parents’ nightmares—and well-crafted novels—are made” (The Atlanta Journal-Constitution). “Day of Reckoning is dynamite.” —Chicago Tribune “Gripping.” —The Washington Post
