书籍简介

现在是一部由伊丽莎白·莫斯主演的 Apple TV+ 系列剧：在这部“令人毛骨悚然”的连环杀手小说中，不死的女孩追捕了本不该存在的杀手，这部小说改编自获奖作家劳伦·比克斯 (旧金山纪事报) 的连环杀手小说。

哈珀·柯蒂斯是一位走出过去的杀手。柯比·马兹拉奇 (Kirby Mazrachi) 是一个从未注定有未来的女孩。柯比是一个闪亮的女孩，是充满潜力的聪明年轻女性之一，哈珀注定要扼杀她的生命，因为他在大萧条时期的芝加哥偶然发现了一栋通往其他时代的房子。

在房子的催促下，哈珀将自己插入这些闪亮女孩的生活，等待出击时机。他是猎人，每次谋杀后都会消失得无影无踪，进入另一个时代——直到他的一个受害者幸存下来。

柯比决心将杀害她的凶手绳之以法，于是她加入了《芝加哥太阳时报》，与报道她案件的记者丹·维拉斯奎兹一起工作。很快，柯比发现自己正在接近一个不可能的真相……

“非常原创，文笔优美，我得说，它让我毛骨悚然。这是一部特别的作品。”——塔娜·弗伦奇

Now an Apple TV+ series starring Elisabeth Moss: the girl who wouldn't die hunts the killer who shouldn't exist in this "expertly chilling" twist on the serial killer novel from the award-winning author Lauren Beukes (San Francisco Chronicle).

Curtis is a killer who stepped out of the past. Kirby Mazrachi is the girl who was never meant to have a future. Kirby is the last shining girl, one of the bright young women, burning with potential, whose lives he is destined to snuff out after he stumbles on a House in Depression-era Chicago that opens on to other times.

At the urging of the House, he inserts himself into the lives of these shining girls, waiting for the perfect moment to strike. He's the ultimate hunter, vanishing without a trace into another time after each murder -- until one of his victims survives.

Determined to bring her would-be killer to justice, Kirby joins the Chicago Sun-Times to work with the reporter, Dan Velasquez, who covered her case. Soon Kirby finds herself closing in on an impossible truth . . .

“Utterly original, beautifully written, and I must say, it creeped the holy bejasus out of me. This is something special.” —Tana French
