Prima Che Uccida (Un Mistero di Mackenzie White—Libro 1) (Italian Edition) Kindle Edition

3.9 3.9 out of 5 stars 4,154 ratings

Dall’autore di successo Blake Pierce, una nuova serie di gialli mozzafiato.

Una donna viene trovata morta nei campi di granoturco del Nebraska, legata a un palo, vittima di un folle assassino. La polizia non ci mette molto a realizzare di avere a che fare con un serial killer - e che la sua furia omicida è appena iniziata.

La detective Mackenzie White è giovane, determinata e più intelligente dei maschilisti di mezza età che lavorano con lei nella polizia locale. È quindi a malincuore che viene interpellata per risolvere il caso. Anche se detestano ammetterlo, i suoi colleghi poliziotti hanno bisogno della sua mente giovane e brillante, che li ha già aiutati in passato a risolvere casi per loro difficili. Eppure, stavolta l’enigma sembra impossibile anche per Mackenzie: né lei né la polizia locale hanno mai visto prima qualcosa del genere.

Con il supporto dell’FBI, ha inizio una caccia all’uomo. Mackenzie, turbata da un oscuro passato, relazioni fallite e dall’innegabile attrazione che prova verso il nuovo agente dell’FBI, deve affrontare i propri demoni quando la caccia al killer la trascina nei luoghi più bui della sua mente. Immergendosi nella mente dell’assassino per tentare di comprendere la sua psicologia contorta, scopre che il male esiste davvero e che l’unica speranza è non rimanerne invischiata, mentre il mondo inizia a crollarle addosso.

Dopo che altre donne vengono trovate morte, inizia una corsa contro il tempo. L’unica soluzione è scovare il killer prima che uccida ancora.

Thriller-noir psicologico dalla suspence mozzafiato, PRIMA CHE UCCIDA è il primo libro di una nuova, avvincente serie—con un nuovo, irresistibile personaggio— che vi terrà incollati alle pagine fino a tarda notte.

Il libro#2 della serie I Misteri di Mackenzie White sarà presto disponibile.

Reviewed in Italy on May 13, 2023
“Prima Che Uccida” di Blake Pierce.

Devo dire che questo libro mi è piaciuto dall’inizio alla fine!

La protagonista, Mackenzie White, è una detective giovane e determinata che lavora nella polizia locale del Nebraska.

Nonostante sia più intelligente dei suoi colleghi maschilisti di mezza età, Mackenzie viene interpellata a malincuore per risolvere il caso della donna trovata morta nei campi di granoturco.

Anche se detestano ammetterlo, i suoi colleghi poliziotti hanno bisogno della sua mente giovane e brillante, che li ha già aiutati in passato a risolvere casi per loro difficili.

In questo libro, Mackenzie si trova a dover affrontare un serial killer folle e spietato.

Con il supporto dell’FBI, ha inizio una caccia all’uomo che la trascina nei luoghi più bui della sua mente.

Mackenzie deve affrontare i propri demoni quando la caccia al killer la porta a immergersi nella mente dell’assassino per tentare di comprendere la sua psicologia contorta.

Devo dire che questo thriller-noir psicologico è pieno zeppo d’azione e colpi di scena.

Non riuscivo a smettere di leggere perché volevo sapere cosa sarebbe successo alla fine!

Blake Pierce ha fatto un ottimo lavoro nel creare personaggi realistici e coinvolgenti e nel tenere alta la tensione per tutta la durata del libro.

In sintesi, se sei alla ricerca di un thriller-noir psicologico dalla suspense mozzafiato, “Prima Che Uccida” è il libro giusto per te.

E se hai bisogno di ulteriori informazioni o se hai domande specifiche sul libro, sarò felice di aiutarti."

Reviewed in France on October 3, 2017
Il libro è scritto seguendo una costruzione dei fatti abbastanza semplice, già vista in molti altri gialli (killer che scappa e poliziotto che insegue), tuttavia è scritto molto bene. I capitoli iniziano e finiscono al punto giusto, quel che basta per tenere il lettore sulle spine. L'ho letto durante un viaggio e devo dire che non ho visto il tempo passare.

3.0 out of 5 stars mediocre, niente di particolare
Reviewed in Italy on May 1, 2023
Devo ammettere che il libro "Prima Che Uccida" mi ha lasciato una sensazione di mediocrità. Sebbene la trama fosse interessante e avvincente, ho trovato la scrittura un po' debole e poco coinvolgente. Ho anche notato che la narrazione era un po' troppo didascalica e che la caratterizzazione dei personaggi era superficiale.

Inoltre, ho trovato che la protagonista, Mackenzie White, fosse poco realistica e poco credibile come personaggio. La sua abilità nel risolvere i crimini sembrava essere troppo esagerata, e ho trovato difficile credere che una giovane detective fosse in grado di risolvere un caso così complesso senza alcuna esperienza precedente.

Anche il finale mi ha lasciato un po' deluso. Ho trovato che la risoluzione del caso fosse un po' troppo sbrigativa e poco convincente, e non ho avuto la sensazione di avere avuto una vera e propria conclusione soddisfacente.

In sintesi, "Prima Che Uccida" è stato un libro che ho trovato mediocre. Sebbene la trama fosse interessante, la scrittura era debole e poco coinvolgente, la protagonista poco credibile e il finale poco soddisfacente. Non lo consiglierei a chi cerca un giallo avvincente e ben scritto.

Adoro leggere i libri di questo genere.
All'inizio mi è piaciuto tantissimo,non riuscivo a staccarmi da queste pagine. A tratti avevo addirittura paura 😅
Poi pian piano la storia ha perso un po', è diventata scontata, prevedibile...
Sicuramente è un bel libro e sono contenta di averlo letto.
