Pronzini, Bill - MASQUES

[LJ Roberts]

MASQUES – G Bill Pronzini – Standalone
Leisure Books, 1999 (Reprint from 1981) - Paperback

Photographer Steve Giroux, vacationing in New Orleans, but the vacation turns into a nightmare when a voice on the phone demands a photograph Steve never had and he finds himself being stalked..

Pronzini has truly captured the feel of New Orleans in this dark, creepy, scary book with a really poor ending. However, he is a master at first person and bringing you into the thoughts and fears of his protagonist. While definitely not his best book, he kept me turning the pages way past my bedtime.
