El adversario

A chilling tale, a true story that leaves us stunned, a journey into the heart of horror, an exceptional book that has been compared to Truman Capote's In Cold Blood. On January 9, 1993, Jean-Claude Romand murdered his wife, his children, his parents, and then unsuccessfully attempted suicide. The investigation revealed that he was not a doctor, as he had claimed, and, even more unbelievably, he was nothing else either. He had been lying since he was eighteen. On the verge of being exposed, he chose to eliminate those whose gaze he could not bear. He was sentenced to life imprisonment.
