Evil

Jack Ketchum's disturbing, boundary-crossing horror thriller is regarded by experts as one of the great masterpieces of the genre. The story of a boy confronted with unimaginable cruelties amidst an American suburban idyll delves deep into the abysses of the human psyche. After the brilliantly written novel circulated for many years as a secret classic, it is now receiving the attention it deserves, thanks in part to Stephen King, who has also written an extensive introduction to this work, and is finally being published as a German first edition.
