Product Details
- 〈 2022 Edgar Award Winner 〉 * * * ── new york, 1990s, late night gay bar. Four men were found one after another as dismembered corpses. What kind of life did they live, when and where did they meet the murderer, and why did they have to be killed because they were loved by their families and friends. A masterpiece of nonfiction written with anger at the brutal crime and empathy for the voiceless victims. --------- A murderer who preyed on gay men in New York one after another. The victim was lured to death from a piano bar nearing closure, and the killer was nicknamed the Last Call Killer. The author thoroughly interviews the victims' families and acquaintances, bar clerks, investigators, etc., and examines the characters of the perpetrators and victims, the details of the crime, and the gay people at the time when AIDS was raging. We will expose the reality of discrimination. --------- David Gran (original author of the movie 『 Killers of the Flower Moon 』) In this amazing and powerful nonfiction book, the author goes beyond mere crime stories to shed light on the lives of people who have been forgotten for too long, saving an important part of American history --------- 【Table of Contents】 ■Chapter 1...Unidentified ■Chapter 2...Banker ■Chapter 3...Good person ■Chapter 4...Rick ■Chapter 5...Tryout with Eddie Marrero ■Chapter 6...There's no way you can get hit ■Chapter 7...See you again ■Chapter 8...Last Call Murderer ■Chapter 9...Nurse ■Chapter 10...Gold Dust ■Chapter 11...Out of the forest ■Chapter 12...Unquestionable evidence ■get him out of here ■epilogue ■townhouse revisited ■source ■translator afterword
