Sinossi
È trascorso ormai un anno da quando Evelyn Talbot si è trasferita in Alaska, ad Hanover House, la clinica psichiatrica di massima sicurezza dove vengono internati i serial killer più efferati. Solo pochi di loro hanno una mente così brillante da riuscire a spiegare il complesso modus operandi che si cela dietro ai propri crimini, e uno di questi è appena arrivato. Si tratta di Lyman Bishop, il "Fabbricante di Zombi", un genetista accusato di lobotomizzare le sue vittime con un rompighiaccio. L' unico il cui raffinato intelletto regge il confronto con il famigerato Hannibal Lecter. Appena Evelyn lo incontra sente il sangue gelarsi nelle vene, e non è certo per la tempesta di ghiaccio che sta per abbattersi sulla zona... Ha la netta sensazione che qualcosa nella sua vita stia per cambiare, irreparabilmente. Quando viene ritrovato il corpo di una nuova vittima uccisa con un rompighiaccio, il dubbio che Bishop sia l'uomo sbagliato emerge con violenza. Ma le sfide non sono finite per Evelyn, perché la minaccia di Jasper, il ragazzo che a sedici anni l'ha segregata e seviziata, sembra più vicina che mai. Esiste un legame tra questi eventi? È solo un caso che la donna massacrata assomigli terribilmente alla bella psichiatra? Per Evelyn e l'uomo che ama, il tenace commissario Amarok, la caccia è di nuovo aperta. Perché nessuno è al sicuro nel grande freddo.

2.75 stars This novella is a prequel to a new series by Novak. I must admit I was a little disappointed with the story. I liked it, and I can see a lot of promise for the series. But this one left me feeling a little deflated. So our main character in this novella and for the series is Dr Evelyn Talbo Leggi tutto
The prequel to a series is always important I feel. One to entice readers to be eager to read the subsequent books in the series and to test the waters I would think for feedback and readers reactions. I really was looking forward to reading this 200 page introduction however I think it played more o Leggi tutto
I received a free ARC of Hanover House from Brenda Novak via Netgalley in exchange of an honest and unbiased review. This book is a 200 page prequel novella to Whiteout, Book 1 in the Hanover House Chronicles which will be released in September 2016. This is the first book I have read by Ms. Novak, a Leggi tutto
I abandoned Hanover House at 32%. I can sum up this book in one word - superficial. Having trained as a psychiatric nurse and worked in the mental health system for a number of years I am naturally drawn towards books set in this environment. There have been some wonderful reads. Unfortunately I am

This is definitely not a Sandra Brown book. It doesn't have that foggy, elusive atmosphere that one expects in a thriller-mystery story. That made clear, I can't say that I didn't enjoy it enough to give the next book a chance. There are elements in the story that intrigue me but, at the same time, s Leggi tutto
**** 4.5 STARS **** What a way to start off a series! This story explains why Evelyn Talbot does what she does. The reasons why she risks her life to study murderers, rapists, and con-artists. Hanover House is in the the process of being built in a small town in Alaska. Not everyone is happy, but it Leggi tutto
