Frames: La Trilogia di Freddie Montgomery Serie
Questa avvincente trilogia si addentra nelle complessità della percezione umana, della memoria e della natura sfuggente della verità. Attraverso narratori inattendibili, ogni capitolo intreccia magistralmente una complessa rete di relazioni e misteri.
