Sinossi

John Waters is a successful petroleum geologist with the perfect family. Then one day his world is turned inside out by a single word spoken from the lips of the stunning Eve Sumner. One solitary word that takes him back a decade to another woman and the most passionate of affairs. Mallory Gray-Candler was the quintessential Southern Belle. But her captivating beauty and intelligence hid a dark side that John Waters couldn't handle. Hilary loved John with a deep seething passion that threatened to destroy them both, and despite his infatuation he ended their affair. Sometime later her body was raped and murdered on a New Orleans pier. When John and Eve meet two days later at a cocktail party her parting gesture is a slight squeeze of his hand and the words "You weren't wrong about what I said, it's me John." His blood runs cold. How does Eve Sumner know so many secrets about his past with Mallory Gray-Candler? Was their first meeting cleverly orchestrated or simply fete.

Recensione

This one bounds along keeping you turning the pages long after sleep beckons (Independent on Sunday about Dead Sleep)

Greg Iles's new novel, SLEEP NO MORE, should come with a red wrapper marked DANGER, HIGH EXPLOSIVES. It is that rarity, a thriller that really thrills, a shocker that really shocks. You'll find yourself afraid to turn off the light after seven chapters, and after eleven, you may find yourself wondering if the person lying next to you when you do darken the room is someone you really know or a dangerous stranger. This one gets under your skin, and then burrows deep. Imagine what Rebecca might have been if it had been written by a man. That'll give you the idea of how successful this novel is. (Stephen King)

Greg Iles is a phenomenal writer (Independent on Sunday on DEAD SLEEP)
