  • "Overview: Eighteen-year-old Eric has just been released from juvenile detention for murdering his mother and stepfather. Now he's looking for some tenderness-tenderness he finds in caressing and killing beautiful girls. Fifteen-year-old Lori has run away from home again. Emotionally naive but sexually precocious, she is also looking for tenderness-tenderness she finds in Eric. Will Lori and Eric be each other's salvation or destruction?"
  • "El drama de dos jóvenes en una búsqueda desesperada. Eric Poole acaba de salir de prisión gracias a un indulto, tras haber asesinado a dos chicas. Aún no ha cumplido los dieciocho años, y ya tiene una lúgubre historia de la que huir. Sin embargo, él tan sólo busca una cosa en la vida: ternura. Lori Cranston, una joven que se ha escapado de casa, también necesita ternura. La rastrea en todos los hombres que encuentra, hasta el punto de enredarse en los más peligrosos incidentes. Su vida es una constante huida de sí misma."
  • "L'histoire de deux adolescents, en mal de tendresse, dont les destins se croisent. Lori, 15 ans, délinquante en fugue. Eric, 18 ans, psychopathe, qui vient d'être libéré de 3 ans de détention pour les meurtres de sa mère et de son beau-père. Lori décide de retrouver Eric qu'elle a rencontré jadis, dans des circonstances dramatiques... La criminalité est traitée d'une façon détachée, immorale, le criminel étant une victime de la société. Le livre n'est pas à conseiller aux adolescents. Les adultes y vivront des émotions fortes puisque l'auteur en a fait un véritable thriller mené avec brio."
  • "A psychological thriller told from the points of view of a teenage serial killer and the runaway girl who falls in love with him."

  • ""The two main characters in this novel are Eric Poole, an eighteen-year-old psychopath who has just been released from a juvenile detention facility where he was sent after murdering his mother and stepfather; and Lori Cranston, a sexually active fifteen-year-old runaway who has developed a 'fixation' on Eric ... Cormier performs literary magic by making us empathize with these two teenagers who live at society's far edges." Voice Youth Advocates."@en
