Morte a Venice

by Ray Bradbury

Overview

Tra le ombre e i fangosi canali, i bungalow in rovina e le palme asfittiche della città californiana, si aggira forse un omicida. A sospettarlo è un giovane scrittore, perso nel suo mondo di storie inventate fino a quando attorno a lui non cominciano ad accadere strani fatti. All'inizio si tratta di misteriose telefonate, ma via via gli "incidenti" si fanno sempre più inquietanti. E fatali. Il ragazzo chiede allora aiuto a Elmo Crumley, detective di strada, e a una ex gloria del cinema ancora affamata di vita. Insieme riusciranno a venire a capo del puzzle.
