Hannibal Rising [Thomas Harris]

Translated from English ”Hannibal Rising”

One of the greatest living thriller authors closes the circle. This last Lecter story is also the beginning. Thomas Harris once again transforms our image of Hannibal. In a brilliant, fascinating thriller, he explores the terrifying consequences of love, loyalty, and moral choices.

Hannibal Lecter emerges from the nightmare of the Eastern Front: a child in the snow, silenced and scarred. He seems utterly alone, but he is tormented by demons.

Hannibal's uncle, a famous painter, rescues him from a Soviet orphanage and takes him to France, where he lives with the beautiful, exotic Lady Murasaki.

Lady Murasaki helps Hannibal to heal. Under her care, he flourishes and hones his artistic talents. He is also admitted to a French medical faculty, as the youngest person ever.

But Hannibal's demons do not leave him in peace. As his memories return, the thirst for revenge awakens. The realization that he possesses not only intellectual gifts changes his world and ultimately himself...
