La estancia azul

Аннотация

Jeffery Deaver explora en La Estancia Azul el siniestro territorio del suspense en la red. El asesino del relato responde al apodo de Phate, pero su verdadero nombre es Jon Patrick Holloway. Aparentemente no es más que un hacker, un inofensivo pirata informático. Pero su mente perversa ha ideado un programa llamado Trapdoor, el cual le permite asaltar los ordenadores de sus víctimas potenciales, apoderarse de todos los archivos que contienen información de carácter personal y, de este modo, iniciar un juego macabro cuyo objetivo final es la eliminación del usuario elegido. Para atrapar a este peligroso psicópata, la policía recurre a la ayuda de Wyatt Gillette, un hacker experto que cumple un año de condena en la cárcel por un delito informático menor. Es preciso actuar deprisa, pues los terribles asesinatos se suceden uno tras otro, y nadie en la red está a salvo.

In The Shadow Of The Master: Classic Tales by Edgar Allan Poe

This anthology was edited by Michael Connelly. His essay is called "Once Upon a Midnight Dreary."

A collection of stories by thriller master Edgar Allan Poe with essays by beloved and bestselling writers, to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Poe's birth. Authors involved include Michael Connelly, Jeffery Deaver, Nelson DeMille, Tess Gerritsen, Sue Grafton, Stephen King, Lisa Scottoline, Laura Lippman, and twelve others.

***

Few have crafted stories as haunting as those by Edgar Allan Poe. Collected here to commemorate the 200th anniversary of Poe's birth are sixteen of his best tales accompanied by twenty essays from beloved authors, including T. Jefferson Parker, Lawrence Block, Sara Paretsky, and Joseph Wambaugh, among others, on how Poe has changed their life and work.

Michael Connelly recounts the inspiration he drew from Poe's poetry while researching one of his books. Stephen King reflects on Poe's insight into humanity's dark side in "The Genius of 'The Tell-Tale Heart.'" Jan Burke recalls her childhood terror during late-night reading sessions. Tess Gerritsen, Nelson DeMille, and others remember the classic B-movie adaptations of Poe's tales. And in "The Thief," Laurie R. King complains about how Poe stole all the good ideas… or maybe he just thought of them first.

Powerful and timeless, In the Shadow of the Master is a celebration of one of the greatest literary minds of all time.
