Cari Mora by Thomas Harris

[Martin]

"Twenty-five million dollars in cartel gold lies hidden beneath a mansion on the Miami Beach waterfront. Ruthless men have tracked it for years. Leading the pack is Hans-Peter Schneider. Driven by unspeakable appetites, he makes a living fleshing out the violent fantasies of other, richer men.

"Cari Mora, caretaker of the house, has escaped from the violence in her native country. She stays in Miami on a wobbly Temporary Protected Status, subject to the iron whim of ICE. She works at many jobs to survive.

"Beautiful, marked by war, Cari catches the eye of Hans-Peter as he closes in on the treasure. But Cari Mora has surprising skills, and her will to survive has been tested before."

It will be interesting to see what Harris does with a new storyline, especially after nearly 40 years of Lecter stories.

Will give this one a try when it comes out.

I am excited for this one.

Glad they finally revealed the synopsis. I love the sound of it, can’t wait to pick this one up!

I really like the synopsis.

Here is a different cover:

I believe the first is UK and the second is US but I could be wrong.

Looks like I'll have to import a copy from the UK, the US cover is... Well it's not really terrible, it's just boring.

Americans can't handle quality covers it seems . . .

I don’t care for either cover… the first one looks like a cheap romance or chick-lit cover, and the second one is terribly bland. If I had to choose, which I will have to, I’ll choose the second cover, the American edition, as at least it has claws and alligators.

I like the first one better but it also has a Dan Brown vibe to it.

I'm really looking forward to this, but it bums me out that, at the rate Harris writes, we will probably never see Dr. Lecter again.

I believe he has stated that he has no interest in re-visiting Dr. Lecter. I would not be surprised if this was his last novel. I know this fulfills his contractual obligation with the publisher.
