Produktbeschreibung
A suspenseful, thrilling anthology of 30 original short stories inspired by the iconic works of legendary filmmaker Alfred Hitchcock, curated by acclaimed editor Maxim Jakubowski. Featuring some of the biggest names in mystery and crime fiction, including Lee Child, Sophie Hannah, Peter Swanson, and many more! Birds, Strangers and Psychos is a thrilling anthology that brings together the biggest names in mystery and crime fiction to pay homage to Alfred Hitchcock, the legendary filmmaker whose name is synonymous with suspense. Acclaimed editor Maxim Jakubowski curates 30 original short stories, each inspired by the mood, tension, and style that defined Hitchcock's groundbreaking work. This anthology invites both emerging and established voices to reimagine the chilling atmospheres, twisted plots, and unforgettable characters of Hitchcock's films, from Psycho and Vertigo to North by Northwest and The Birds. Just as Hitchcock adapted stories from literary giants like Daphne du Maurier, Patricia Highsmith, and Roald Dahl, Birds, Strangers and Psychos unites today's literary stars to craft new suspenseful tales that are destined to thrill, haunt, and unsettle. These stories celebrate Hitchcock's enduring influence, creating an anthology that serves both as a tribute and as a reminder of why Hitchcock's legacy continues to loom so large in popular culture. This volume is not just a collection of stories - it's an invitation to rediscover the artistry of suspense. Each author takes on the challenge of evoking the quintessentially 'Hitchcockian' elements that have captivated audiences for decades: ordinary lives interrupted by peril, psychological duels, and unexpected encounters that spiral into nightmares. The volume showcases an extraordinary blend of talent, featuring stories from: Lee Child Joe R Lansdale & Keith Lansdale Tara Moss Donna Moore James Grady Liz Nugent Peter Lovesey Kim Newman A.K. Benedict Vaseem Khan M.W. Craven S.A. Cosby Sophie Hannah Guy Adams Nadime Matheson David Thomson Jerome Charyn Anne Billson Lauren Henderson William Boyle Jeff Noon Xan Brooks Ragnar Jonasson Denise Mina Lily Samson Peter Swanson
