Prepare for The Hypnotist to cast its spell
In the frigid clime of Tumba, Sweden, a gruesome triple
homicide attracts the interest of Detective Inspector Joona
Linna, who demands to investigate the murders. The killer is
still at large, and there's only one surviving witness--the
boy whose family was killed before his eyes. Whoever
committed the crimes wanted this boy to die: he's suffered
more than one hundred knife wounds and lapsed into a state
of shock. Desperate for information, Linna sees only one
option: hypnotism. He enlists Dr. Erik Maria Bark to
mesmerize the boy, hoping to discover the killer through his
eyes.
It's the sort of work that Bark has sworn he would never do
again--ethically dubious and psychically scarring. When he
breaks his promise and hypnotizes the victim, a long and
terrifying chain of events begins to unfurl.
An international sensation, The Hypnotist is set to appear
in thirty-seven countries, and it has landed at the top of
bestseller lists wherever it's been published--in France,
Holland, Germany, Spain, Italy, Denmark. Now it's America's
turn. Combining the addictive power of the Stieg Larsson
trilogy with the storytelling drive of The Silence of the
Lambs, this adrenaline-drenched thriller is spellbinding
from its very first page.
