Publisher's Synopsis
Closer Hannibal is a terrifying psychological horror novel that plunges deep into the mind of one of the most chilling figures in modern fiction. Set years after the infamous events of The Silence of the Lambs, the story follows a young detective, Emily Ward, who is tasked with investigating a series of gruesome murders that bear an eerie resemblance to the methods of Dr. Hannibal Lecter. What Emily doesn't know is that Hannibal, having been at large for years, has taken a disturbing interest in her case-drawing closer with each passing day. As Emily digs deeper into the horrific killings, she begins receiving cryptic, taunting letters from a man who seems to know her every thought. With the lines between predator and prey blurring, Emily finds herself ensnared in a deadly game of cat and mouse, and she must confront the darkest corners of her own mind to survive. Closer Hannibal is a haunting exploration of obsession, manipulation, and the terror that comes from being hunted by a monster who knows you better than you know yourself.
