書籍簡介

亞馬遜圖表、華爾街日報和今日美國暢銷書。

《紐約時報》第一暢銷懸疑大師迪恩·孔茨帶領讀者踏上一段曲折的旅程：失戀、不可能的第二次機會和可怕的承諾。

十年前，艾米麗·卡利諾 (Emily Carlino) 的汽車在加州高速公路上拋錨後失蹤了。她被認為是連環殺手 Ronny Lee Jessup 的受害者之一，其遺體從未被發現。

作家大衞·索恩 (David Thorne) 仍然沒有從失去生命中的摯愛中恢復過來，也沒有從沒有在那裏拯救她的罪惡感中恢復過來。從那時起，他就盡其所能地尋求關閉。他甚至定期去監獄探望 Jessup，急切地想知道艾米麗最後幾個小時的答案，這樣他就可以讓她的身體休息了。然後大衞遇到了麥迪森·薩頓，迷人、頑皮，並且敏鋭地意識到大衞失去的一切。但真正讓他歎為觀止的是，關於麥迪森的一切，直到她的吻，都和艾米麗一樣。隨着幻想變得可信，大衞的痴迷與日俱增，麥迪森的神祕過去加深——恐怖升級。

她是艾米麗嗎？還是一個不可抗拒的死鈴聲？無論哪種方式，最終的問題都是一樣的：她在玩什麼遊戲？無論發現的風險如何，大衞都願意為這寶貴的第二次機會而冒險。他已經十年沒有感受到這種鼓舞、充滿希望、充滿愛意了……而且他很害怕。

An Amazon Charts, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today bestseller.

Number one New York Times bestselling master of suspense Dean Koontz takes readers on a twisting journey of lost love, impossible second chances, and terrifying promises.

A decade ago, Emily Carlino vanished after her car broke down on a California highway. She was presumed to be one of serial killer Ronny Lee Jessup's victims whose remains were never found.

Writer David Thorne still hasn't recovered from losing the love of his life, or from the guilt of not being there to save her. Since then, he's sought closure any way he can. He even visits regularly with Jessup in prison, desperate for answers about Emily's final hours so he may finally lay her body to rest. Then David meets Maddison Sutton, beguiling, playful, and keenly aware of all David has lost. But what really takes his breath away is that everything about Maddison, down to her kisses, is just like Emily. As the fantastic becomes credible, David's obsession grows, Maddison's mysterious past deepens--and terror escalates.

Is she Emily? Or an irresistible dead ringer? Either way, the ultimate question is the same: What game is she playing? Whatever the risk in finding out, David's willing to take it for this precious second chance. It's been ten years since he's felt this inspired, this hopeful, this much in love...and he's afraid.

“這本書扣人心絃，令人毛骨悚然……真正的迷人。Koontz仍然是一個精通多種類型故事的人，這是他最好的故事之一。”——(主演審查)

"A gripping and downright frightening book...genuinely captivating. Koontz remains a masterful storyteller in multiple genres, and this is one of his best." --Booklist (starred review)
