KS5/Adult LRC Book Recommendation - Cari Mora by Thomas Harris

Thomas Harris’s first standalone novel in over four decades, Cari Mora marks the welcome return of a true master of the novelist's craft. With both Red Dragon and The Silence of the Lambs, Harris delivered thrillers that rewrote the genre. In Cari Mora he directs his eye on the shady underground of the Miami Beach waterfront for a tension-soaked thriller that turns a hunt for hidden cartel gold into a ruthless, adrenaline-shot struggle for survival.

In Hannibal Lecter, Thomas Harris revealed the face of true evil.

In Cari Mora, he reveals the face of ultimate courage.

Somewhere, buried beneath the Miami Beach waterfront, lies millions of dollars in cartel gold. On its trail is the ruthless, twisted Hans-Peter Schneider. Standing in his way is a woman born to survive.

His first stand alone novel in over four decades, Cari Mora marks the welcome return of a true master of the craft. With both Red Dragon and The Silence of the Lambs, Thomas Harris delivered thrillers that rewrote the genre and transformed popular culture with the creation of the brilliant, psychopathic cannibal, Hannibal Lecter.

Cari Mora pushes the bar even higher, plunging the reader into the depraved universe of Schneider and the iron will of Cari Mora, a young woman who will risk everything to protect what is hers.
