Helpful Score: 1


A best-seller in Europe, the Washington Post called it, "scary, erotic, touching, tragic, and thrilling." A young boy becomes enthralled with a book, but on searching for others by the author, finds that someone has been mysteriously destroying all copies of every book the author had ever written. Unravelling the mystery involves a tender love story, a truly horrifying villian, relationships of friendship, of family, of loyalty, and betrayal.
