Beschreibung

Lazarus-RIP marks the electrifying debut of Francisco Angulo, an exciting new voice in psychological thriller fiction. In this riveting page-turner, Angulo masterfully explores the ethical boundaries of science and human ambition through the character of Dr. Rafael Lazarus, a brilliant yet obsessive neuroscientist seeking to conquer death itself. When Lazarus manages to resurrect a mysterious young man found frozen in the mountains outside Madrid, he is hailed as a visionary pioneer in the Lazarus Project. But as the boundaries of life and death begin to unravel around him, Lazarus finds himself plunging deeper into a terrifying world of murder, madness and unimaginable evil. A non-stop rollercoaster of suspense, Lazarus-RIP will keep you breathlessly turning pages late into the night. Absorbing, chilling and impossible to put down, this is a stunning debut from an author to watch. "A thrilling descent into darkness. Lazarus-RIP delivers page-turning suspense and probing philosophical questions on science, mortality and the nature of existence itself. A must-read for fans of high-concept psychological thrillers." - The New York Times "Chilling and ingenious! Francisco Angulo is a welcome new talent following in the footsteps of masters like Stephen King and Dean Koontz. Lazarus-RIP kept me awake far past my bedtime." - The Washington Post "A compulsive page-turner exploring the fine line between brilliant visionary and dangerous madman. Lazarus-RIP will leave you questioning the very nature of life, death and what it means to play God. Destined to be discussed heatedly at book clubs for years to come!" - The Los Angeles Times "A breathtaking thrill ride! Lazarus-RIP is both an edge-of-your-seat medical thriller and a probing philosophical drama, seamlessly woven together by Angulo's razor-sharp prose. The ending left me stunned and eager for more!" - Chicago Tribune
