The plot centres on Matt Wells, a he comes to realise that a series of murders use the same methods that he has written in his crime novels. The police also discover this and suspect him of being the murderer. Wells attempts to keep the police at a distance as, with the help of friends, he struggles to identify the true criminal, but at the same time to protect his family, friends and work associates from meeting a violent and painful death. Paul Johnston has written a highly inventive crim novel, one that holds you tight as the story unfolds to its bloody climax. ¿Alguna vez te han dado ganas de matar a alguien? A Matt Wells, escritor londinense de novela negra, sí. Abandonado por su agente, su editor y su esposa, tiene más fantasías de venganza que la mayoría de la gente. Cuando un asesino en serie apodado el "Diablo Blanco" se pone en contacto con él, Matt descubre horrorizado que este ser diabólico lo sabe todo sobre él, su familia, sus amigos... y sus enemigos. Entonces comienza la matanza y las ociosas fantasías de Matt empiezan a hacerse realidad. Si no detiene a tiempo al Diablo Blanco, todas las personas a las que odia pronto conocerán un escalofriante destino. Wow.. wasn't the best written story I've ever read, and there were some gaps.. but I love the concept, I loved the surprise element (thought I had it figured out, several times, but was WRONG!!) I'm delighted to hear there are two more in the series... curious to see if Johnston's writing improves... but with concepts like this, I'm still reading his books even if his writing does not improve. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Appartient à la sérieMatt Wells (1)
Writer's block is nothing compared to the sinister assignment London-based novelist Matt Wells has just received. A chain of seemingly innocent e-mails from a devoted fan turns deadly when Matt discovers the correspondent is a cold-blooded killer with an agenda for murder--and Matt's own family and friends are among the scheduled victims. Under close surveillance, Matt is plunged into a plot more twisted than any he has used in his novels. This is the real thing, and with each killing, the man known as the White Devil tightens his grip by incriminating Matt at the murder scenes. Cast not only as the ghostwriter of his persecutor's terrifying story, but as the victim, Matt needs to risk everything to protect his loved ones. But with the police closing in and his friends being picked off, he is running out of time. The White Devil is out there--and he's watching.--From publisher description.
