À propos de cette écoute
"I sat down to read A Good Man and didn't move until I'd finished.... I loved this book." (Caroline Kepnes, author of You)
A dark and gripping novel of psychological suspense about a family man driven to unspeakable acts, in the vein of The Perfect Nanny and We Need to Talk About Kevin.
Thomas Martin was a devoted family man who had all the trappings of an enviable life: a beautiful wife and daughter, a well-appointed home on Long Island's north shore, a job at a prestigious Manhattan advertising firm. He was also a devoted son and brother, shielding the women in his orbit from the everyday brutalities of the world.
But what happens when Thomas’s fragile ego is rocked? After committing a horrific deed - that he can never undo - Thomas grapples with his sense of self. Sometimes he casts himself as a victim and, at other times, a monster. All he ever did was try to be a good man, but maybe if he tells his version of the story, he might uncover how and why things unraveled so horribly.

Commentaires
"[An] ingenious slow burn." (Entertainment Weekly, "Your Complete Guide to the Season's Best Page-Turners")
"Powerful and unsettling.... Produces in the reader a sense of foreboding that builds with ever-increasing intensity to the inevitable and brutal climax.... [A] masterly first novel." (Publishers Weekly starred review)
"As she expertly builds a growing sense of dread, Katz creates an unsettling atmosphere of paranoia, fear, and rage, hinting at the catastrophe to come through ominous comparisons to the tragic operas Thomas loves. This is the sort of relentless novel you can't put down even when you're afraid to read what happens next. An unnerving and absorbing exploration of modern masculinity and how the seeds of violence are sown." (Kirkus Reviews)
