Thriller Psychological
HE IS ONE OF THE MOST HAUNTING CHARACTERS IN ALL OF
LITERATURE.
AT LAST THE EVOLUTION OF HIS EVIL IS
REVEALED.
Hannibal Lecter emerges from the
nightmare of the Eastern Front, a boy in the snow, mute,
with a chain around his neck.
He seems utterly
alone, but he has brought his demons with
him.
Hannibal’s uncle, a noted painter, finds him in
a Soviet orphanage and brings him to France, where Hannibal
will live with his uncle and his uncle’s beautiful and
exotic wife, Lady Murasaki.
Lady Murasaki helps
Hannibal to heal. With her help he flourishes, becoming the
youngest person ever admitted to medical school in
France.
But Hannibal’s demons visit him and torment
him. When he is old enough, he visits them in
turn.
He discovers he has gifts beyond the academic,
and in that epiphany, Hannibal Lecter becomes death’s prodigy.
