Dr. Hannibal Lecter, the physician and monster who has fascinated millions, returns in Hannibal Rising, the new novel by Thomas Harris.
In Thomas Harris's previous novels, which include The Silence of the Lambs and Red Dragon, readers learned that Dr. Lecter saw his entire family killed during World War II in Eastern Europe. Hannibal Rising chronicles the early life of Dr. Lecter, covers the young Hannibal from age 6 to 20, and sheds more light on the circumstances of those deaths, with a focus on Dr. Lecter's memories of his younger sister, Mischa.
Thomas Harris has written the most compelling psychological suspense of our time and each of his novels has been an event. In Dr. Hannibal Lecter, he has gone beyond creating a master villain to present one of the most irresistibly brilliant and disturbing characters in all of literature. Now, in Hannibal Rising, readers will at last learn of Lecter's beginnings and will see the evolution of his evil.
