Ripper

Více o knize

Isabel Allende, the bestselling author of numerous acclaimed novels, showcases her literary versatility in this atmospheric, fast-paced mystery featuring a brilliant teenage sleuth unmasking a serial killer in San Francisco. The story centers on the Jackson women, Indiana and Amanda, whose strong bond is challenged by their contrasting personalities. Indiana, a beautiful holistic healer and free spirit, is hesitant to commit to either of her suitors—Alan, a wealthy elite, or Ryan, a scarred former Navy SEAL. In contrast, Amanda, an introverted high school senior bound for MIT, is captivated by the darker aspects of human nature, much like her father, the SFPD’s Deputy Chief of Homicide. A natural sleuth, she immerses herself in crime novels and the online mystery game Ripper, which she plays with her grandfather and friends. When a series of bizarre murders grips the city, Amanda embarks on her own investigation, uncovering connections before the police do. The case becomes personal when Indiana mysteriously disappears, leading Amanda to question if her mother’s fate is tied to the serial killer. With her mother’s life at stake, Amanda must solve the most intricate mystery she has ever faced before it’s too late.
