Martin Suter - A Deal with the Devil

Written by Martin Suter. Themes include Fiction, Mystery & Detective, Psychological, Thrillers, Family Life.

Sonia Frey fears for her sanity. Her marriage ended in divorce after her husband tried to kill her, and an acid trip has disordered her senses-she can now "feel" smells and "see" sounds. To escape her immediate situation she has moved to a remote Alpine village, where a series of unusual events throws her into further turmoil. The mystery deepens as she discovers a parallel to these occurrences in local folkloric tales of the supernatural. Could the legend of the Devil of Milan really be true? Or is the truth more sinister? Sonia's mind, already under pressure from her strange sensory awareness, is stretched to the breaking point by the climate of paranoia developing around her. Tightly plotted and intelligently written, this engrossing mystery's gripping ending will leave readers pondering the shifting nature of truth and identity.
