I - The Abyss

In the morning, the Cleaner works on the shore of Lake Como and is intently examining the trash because trash always tells a pure truth about people. «I am invisible,» thinks the Cleaner and does not yet know that he... is wrong. He doesn't know much at all. The Cleaner does not know that he will soon lift his head, look at the lake—and his invisible life, full of bitter memories and even more bloody secrets, will begin to leak, ready to sink. And that a tormented thirteen-year-old girl with a purple bangs will soon look at him—and actually see him. And that the Hunter, a broken woman who has spent years saving victims of domestic violence, is already on his trail and searching for him. The Cleaner is still unaware that these three, nameless people, each locked in their own personal horror, are winding their way toward a common explosive climax, and their fate will be decided by Lake Como, which hides and reveals other people's secrets when and how it pleases. The thriller «I - The Abyss» by Donato Carrisi is a novel about how the abyss waits for everyone and not all will be saved.
