Thriller
Arthur Pfefferkorn is a has-been, or perhaps a never-was:
a middle-aged college professor with long-dead literary
aspirations. When his oldest friend, bestselling thriller
writer William de Vallèe, is lost at sea, Pfefferkorn is
torn between envy and grief, for de Vallèe not only
outshone Pfefferkorn professionally, but married the woman
Pfefferkorn loved. Finding an incomplete manuscript from the late writer,
Pfefferkorn sneaks off with it after the funeral and
rewrites it as his own, finally earning the success and
recognition he’d felt robbed of his whole life.
But taking over Bill’s work and status opens up more than
just doors to fame and success. As Pfefferkorn learns more
about the darker side of his late friend’s life, he finds
himself sucked into a wholly unexpected adventure. He sets
in motion a surreal chain of events, plunging him into a
shadowy realm of double crosses and intrigue, a world where
no one can be trusted - and nothing can be taken seriously.
