内容简介 · · · · · ·

前电影明星拉娜·法拉尔邀请了一群亲密的朋友前往希腊的私人岛屿度假。然而,一场谋杀案的发生让这场看似光鲜的旅行笼罩在残酷的谜团之中。这本由畅销书《无声的病人》作者亚历克斯·迈克尔迪斯创作的扭曲、精巧的故事,再次展现了他在塑造不可靠叙述者方面的大师级技艺。

A masterfully paced thriller about a reclusive ex-movie star and her famous friends whose spontaneous trip to a private Greek island is upended by a murder – from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Silent Patient

This is a tale of murder.

Or maybe that’s not quite true. At its heart, it’s a love story, isn’t it?

Lana Farrar is a reclusive ex-movie star and one of the most famous women in the world. Every year, she invites her closest friends to escape the English weather and spend Easter on her idyllic private Greek island.

I tell you this because you may think you know this story. You probably read about it at the time ― it caused a real stir in the tabloids, if you remember. It had all the necessary ingredients for a press sensation: a celebrity; a private island cut off by the wind…and a murder.

We found ourselves trapped there overnight. Our old friendships concealed hatred and a desire for revenge. What followed was a game of cat and mouse ― a battle of wits, full of twists and turns, building to an unforgettable climax. The night ended in violence and death, as one of us was found murdered.

But who am I?

My name is Elliot Chase, and I’m going to tell you a story unlike any you’ve ever heard.

这是一部节奏巧妙的惊悚片,讲述了一位隐居的前电影明星和她的著名朋友们自发前往希腊一座私人岛屿的旅行,却因一场谋杀而被打乱——出自纽约时报排名第一的畅销书《沉默的病人》作者之手。

这是一个谋杀的故事。

或者也许这并不完全正确。从本质上讲,这是一个爱情故事,不是吗?

拉娜·法勒 (Lana Farrar) 是一位隐居的前电影明星,也是世界上最著名的女性之一。每年,她都会邀请最亲密的朋友逃离英国的天气,在她田园诗般的私人希腊岛屿上度过复活节。

我告诉你这个是因为你可能认为你知道这个故事。你当时可能读到过这件事——如果你还记得的话,它在小报上引起了真正的轰动。它具备引起新闻轰动的所有必要要素:名人;一座被风隔绝的私人岛屿……还有一起谋杀案。

我们发现自己被困在那里过夜。我们的旧友谊隐藏着仇恨和复仇的欲望。接下来就是一场猫捉老鼠的斗智斗勇,一波三折,推向令人难忘的高潮。当晚以暴力和死亡结束,我们其中一人被发现被谋杀。

但我是谁?

我的名字是埃利奥特·蔡斯,我要告诉你一个你从未听过的故事。
