  • "Sie haben gerade 318 Millionen Dollar im Lotto gewonnen. Noch wissen sie nicht, dass es der schlimmste Tag ihres Lebens wird ... Die Boatrights können ihr Glück kaum fassen, haben sie doch tatsächlich den Jackpot geknackt: 318 Millionen Dollar und ein neues Leben warten auf sie. Und zwei Gauner, die die Chance ihres Lebens wittern. Sie drohen den Boatrights, ihre Lieben umzubringen, wenn sie nicht die Hälfte des Geldes bekommen. Der clevere Shaw nistet sich bei den Gewinnern im Haus ein, der finstere Romeo bewacht den Rest der Familie: um beim ersten Anzeichen von Widerstand jemanden zu töten. Doch schnell vermischen sich Gier, Wahnsinn, Angst, Vernunft - kurz: Gut und Böse. Und die Frage ist: Wer hat hier eigentlich wen in der Hand? George Dawes Green ist ein international gefeierter Bestsellerautor. Der Durchbruch gelang ihm mit seinem fulminanten Debüt Die Geschworene, das sich über drei Millionen Mal verkaufte. Verfilmt mit Demi Moore und Alex Baldwin unter dem Titel Nicht schuldig wurde es zum Kult wie Das Schweigen der Lämmer. 14 Jahre mussten seine Fans auf sein neues Meisterwerk Raven - Rabentod warten. George Dawes Green lebt abwechselnd in Georgia und New York."

  • ""When Shaw McBride and Romeo Zderko pull up at a convenience store off I-95 in Georgia, their only thought is to fix a leaky tire and be on their way again to Florida-away from their dull Ohio tech-support jobs. But this happens to be the store from which a 318,000,000 million dollar Jackpot ticket has just been sold - and when a pretty clerk accidentally reveals to Shaw the identity of the winning family, he hatches a ferociously audacious scheme: He and Romeo will squeeze the family for half their prize."--Publisher."

That night, he visits the Boatwright home and takes the family hostage, while Romeo patrols the streets nearby, prepared to murder the Boatwrights' loved ones at any sign of resistance. At first, the family offers none. But Shaw's plot depends on maintaining constant fear-merciless, unfaltering terror-and soon, under the pressure, everyone's sanity begins to unravel ... At once frightening, comic, and suspenseful, RAVENS is a wholly original and utterly compelling novel from one of our most talented writers."--Publisher."@en
