✦ Synopsis


Tots cinc podien haver-ho fet, perquè tots sostenien una mena de relació o altra amb Kate Ballou, la bella noia de Nova York que vivia a la casa del costat. I tots cinc, cadascú amb el seu llenguatge, conten llurs històries al cap de policia —i al lector. Cinc històries que es complementen, que exhaureixen caràcters i oportunitats, que posen al descobert compromisos, quimeres, debilitats i, al final, un assassí. Stanley Ellin sap anar al fons de les coses i al fons de les criatures. I el que hi troba, és clar, no sempre és bonic ni exemplar. Però és fascinador.
