● 內文簡介

丹尼斯勒翰(Dennis Lehane)的私家偵探派崔克vs. 麥可康納利(Michael Connelly)的鮑許探長?
23位重量級作家,22名經典角色,一場驚悚小說界不可能的夢幻對決!

成立於2004年的國際驚悚小說作家協會(International Thriller Writers)是世界上第一個驚悚小說作家專業組織,成員不乏當代最知名的大師級作者,每年七月在紐約舉辦的驚悚小說節(ThrillerFest)已成為文壇一大盛事,企劃推出的小說選集更是每每令書迷引領期待。

即將出版的《FaceOff》更是實現了所有書迷不敢奢望的夢想!

在這個陣容空前豪華的合作計畫中,23位世界上最富盛名的暢銷驚悚小說家分組創作11篇全新短篇小說,精心安排過去筆下的經典角色在故事中捉對交鋒!除了丹尼斯勒翰的私家偵探派崔克、麥可康那利的鮑許探長,李查德(Lee Child)的浪人神探傑克李奇、傑佛瑞迪佛(Jeffrey Deaver)的鑑識神探林肯萊姆、伊恩藍欽(Ian Rankin)的雷博思探長、麗莎嘉德納(Lisa Gardner)的女警探華倫……皆為膾炙人口,栩栩如生的角色。穿過創造者搭建的蟲洞相遇的他們,會擦撞出什麼樣的火花?

《FaceOff》由同樣是ITW成員的紐約時報#1暢銷作者David Baldacci主編,每篇故事開始前皆有一段文字揭露幕後創作故事。這些角色往往與特定城市的習性氣味不可分割,作家必須審慎思考合理的相遇安排。例如,康納利與勒翰如何決定,究竟該讓派崔克到洛杉磯,還是鮑許到波士頓?因越戰經驗有幽閉恐懼症的鮑許探長,來到隧道奇多的波士頓會有何反應?作家之間的合作有什麼令人莞爾的小插曲呢?除了11篇精彩的驚悚故事,亦能從中一窺這些備受喜愛的作家的創作身影!
