Hannibal Lector Returns
A new novel featuring the spooky serial cannibal/killer will be released next fall, reports AP. Thomas Harris's previous books about the charming killer, Red Dragon, The Silence of the Lambs and Hannibal, were bestsellers and adapted to the big screen. The upcoming book will be titled Behind the Mask and will focus on how Hannibal became the monster he is. "Millions of readers in 25 languages have wondered how Dr. Lector developed his particular appetite for evil. This novel will satisfy their curiosity," said Irwyn Applebaum, publisher of Bantam Dell Publishing Group, which is releasing the book. It'll be just the thing to go with some fava beans and a nice chianti. Oh and a note to Bantam Dell: Update Harris's website!
