Alex Michaelides

Fra forfatteren av brakdebuten Den tause pasienten. Vreden er en følelsesladet, sjokkerende og elegant psykologisk thriller med klassiske ingredienser: kjærlighet, vennskap, skjult hat, besettelse og hevn. Romanen er et labyrintisk mysterium og er satt opp som en gresk tragedie i fem akter. Vi møter en tilbaketrukket eks-filmstjerne og hennes berømte venner hvis spontane tur til en privat gresk øy blir snudd opp ned av et drap. Fortellerstemmen glir silkemyk og ytterst forrædersk av gårde. For er dette en fortelling om et drap, eller er det ikke? Kanskje er det som fortelleren Elliot påstår – en kjærlighetshistorie? Hver eneste del, stemning og vending i denne boka er mesterlig utført.«Dette er en fortelling om drap. Eller? Innerst inne er det en kjærlighetshistorie, er det ikke? Mitt navn er Elliot Chase, og jeg skal fortelle deg en historie ulik noen annen du har hørt.»

Tämä omaperäinen, mestarillisesti rytmitetty uutuus on äärimmäisen vakuuttava psykologinen trilleri entisestä elokuvatähdestä ja hänen kuuluisista ystävistään, joiden spontaani matka yksityiselle Kreikan saarelle päättyy murhaan.

See on jutustus mõrvast. Aga võib-olla pole see päris tõsi. Sest oma olemuselt on see armastuslugu, kas pole? Lana Farrar - endine filmitäht ja üks kuulsamaid naisi kogu maailmas - kutsub igal aastal parimad sõbrad kaasa ja põgeneb Inglise kliima eest, et veeta lihavõtted tema enda idüllilisel väikesaarel. Kas teile tundub, nagu oleks see lugu teile juba teada? Küllap lugesite selle kohta omal ajal, kui see pakkus kõmulehtedele palju kõneainet: eraomandis Kreeka saar, mis oli suure tuule tõttu muust ilmast ära lõigatud, ja loomulikult mõrv. Olime saarele ööseks lõksu jäänud. Meie vanade sõprussuhete taga olid peidus viha ja kättemaksuiha. Algas kassi ja hiire mäng, ootamatute pööretega üksteise ülekavaldamise lahing, mis päädis unustamatu lõpplahendusega. Öö lõppes pisarate, vere ja surmaga - üks meist tapeti. Ah et kes mina olen? Minu nimi on Elliot Chase ja ma räägin teile loo, millesarnast te pole elades kuulnud. Alex Michaelides sai laialdaselt tuntuks trilleriga "Vaikiv patsient", mis oli 2019. aastal kõige suurema läbimüügiga debüütteos kogu maailmas.

Oma kolmandas romaanis naaseb Michaelides talle miljoneid lugejaid toonud zhanri juurde. "Raev" on meisterliku tempoga põnevusromaan eraklikust endisest filmitähest, kelle spontaanselt korraldatud reis Kreeka erasaarele lõpeb mõrvaga."

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Silent Patient comes a spellbinding tale of psychological suspense, weaving together Greek mythology, murder, and obsession, that further cements "Michaelides as a major player in the field" (Publishers Weekly)--now in mass market. Edward Fosca is a murderer. Of this Mariana is certain. But Fosca is untouchable. A handsome and charismatic Greek tragedy professor at Cambridge University, Fosca is adored by staff and students alike, particularly by the members of a secret society of female students known as The Maidens. Mariana Andros is a brilliant but troubled group therapist who becomes fixated on The Maidens when one member, a friend of Mariana's niece Zoe, is found murdered in Cambridge. Mariana, who was once herself a student at the university, quickly suspects that behind the idyllic beauty of the spires and turrets, and beneath the ancient traditions, lies something sinister. And she becomes convinced that, despite his alibi, Edward Fosca is guilty of the murder. But why would the professor target one of his students? And why does he keep returning to the rites of Persephone, the maiden, and her journey to the underworld? When another body is found, Mariana's obsession with proving Fosca's guilt spirals out of control, threatening to destroy her credibility as well as her closest relationships. But Mariana is determined to stop this killer, even if it costs her everything--including her own life.
