Joyce Carol Oates, a queenpin of the noir genre, has brought her keen and discerning eye to the curation of an outstanding anthology of brand-new top-shelf short stories (and poems by Margaret Atwood!).

La scena ricalca in ogni dettaglio una serie di omicidi avvenuti due anni prima, che portarono alla condanna di un giovane profondamente disturbato di nome Derek Tyler, sulla base di prove allora ritenute inconfutabili. Chi ha commesso questi nuovi, efferati delitti? Si tratta dunque di un emulatore?
