Produktbeschreibung
Pierre is like a neutron bomb who lands amidst suffering humanity in Manhattan in the early 1990s. He, an immigrant from the Languedoc region of France, is an extremely manipulative psychopath who pushes those around him toward their doom, whether via direct action or otherwise. The tale is filled with individuals of varied backgrounds, often in academia, who suffer from his efforts to seek domination over and revenge upon any who stand in his way. Some characters, like Jacque, his relatively sane cousin who initially shelters Pierre in the US, are damned by a felt moral duty to thwart Pierre. Others, like Pierre's girlfriend Jenine, manage both complicity and rebellion. Other powerful, narcissistic characters fall to Pierre's life-deforming moves. Ultimately only one character survives Pierre's depredations. Whatever that character was responsible for, their actions might go unpunished. Who will it be? Pierre or his opponents or a lucky victim?

Autorenporträt
The author, Jan Pierson, is a mystery to all who know him. Born into an accomplished academic family, he has gone his own way, exploring the facts as he learned them while weaving them into a larger tapestry of his particular time. He makes no judgment on the doings of the people of this book nor on the facticity of what he claimed to learn. Rather, understandably, he closes his eyes to the moral judgments that might be made. On his deathbed, he vows to loudly proclaim, 'I am a survivor and have told no truth!"
