內容簡介
內容簡介 甚麼是陌生人？就是他不在你我的日常生活之內，他可以想說什麼就說什麼，沒有負擔，畢竟他人生活，干他何事？至於原本就在此地此刻生活的當事人，被闖入的陌生人打亂原本步調，又好像原來就有甚麼潛伏在身邊，躡手躡腳一步一步靠近，陌生人只是揭開它……以為只不過是輕如羽毛的秘密，竟是壓垮生命的真相──首位囊括了愛倫坡懸疑小說獎、沙莫斯偵探小說獎和安東尼小說獎3項大獎作家哈蘭柯本，在The Stranger一書中，製造懸疑的本領，尤為卓越。一個陌生人，幾乎無處不去，說出來的每句話都攪得人們心慌意亂，尤其是家庭美滿、人生順利的亞當，竟從這個陌生人嘴裡聽到了美麗妻子的驚人秘密。作者運用巧妙的寫作技巧，充滿說服力的人物和濃郁的情感，毫不費力地讓讀者依隨緊張和戲劇張力的故事情節，亦趨亦離，走到最終結局，卻又被另一個謎震驚地久久無法回神……心理驚悚小說大師又回來了，節奏緊湊、邏輯清晰、符合情理。喜歡哈蘭柯本的讀者，永遠能在他的作品中，邊讀邊毛骨悚然，掩卷後卻又不勝唏噓。The Stranger appears out of nowhere, perhaps in a bar, or a parking lot, or at the grocery store. His identity is unknown. His motives are unclear. His information is undeniable. Then he whispers a few words in your ear and disappears, leaving you picking up the pieces of your shattered world.Adam Price has a lot to lose: a comfortable marriage to a beautiful woman, two wonderful sons, and all the trappings of the American Dream: a big house, a good job, a seemingly perfect life.Then he runs into the Stranger. When he learns a devastating secret about his wife, Corrine, he confronts her, and the mirage of perfection disappears as if it never existed at all. Soon Adam finds himself tangled in something far darker than even Corrine's deception, and realizes that if he doesn't make exactly the right moves, the conspiracy he's stumbled into will not only ruin lives - it will end
