Overview
Una obra maestra del terror de los años setenta, un clásico redescubierto con ecos de La lotería de Shirley Jackson y La tienda, de Stephen King.
En el aislado pueblo de granjeros de Harlowe (Nuevo Hampshire), donde la vida apenas si ha cambiado desde hace varias décadas, John Moore y su esposa Mim trabajan la tierra que ha pertenecido a su familia durante generaciones. Pero tan pronto como el carismático Perly Dunsmore llega a Harlowe y empieza a solicitar donaciones para sus subastas, el pueblo empieza a sufrir una lenta y siniestra transformación. A medida que el subastador ejecuta su horrendo y misterioso plan, los Moore y sus vecinos van perdiendo su libertad, sus propiedades y, quizá, también la vida…
El subastador, en una nueva edición, que incluye un prólogo de Grady Hendrix (Cómo vender una casa encantada, Guía del club de lectura para matar vampiros).
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
A 1970s horror masterpiece—rediscovered and resonating with the chilling echoes of Shirley Jackson’s The Lottery and Stephen King’s Needful Things.
In the remote farming town of Harlowe, New Hampshire—where life has hardly changed in decades—John Moore and his wife Mim work the land that’s been in their family for generations. But everything shifts when the charismatic Perly Dunsmore arrives and begins asking for donations for his auctions. Slowly and ominously, the town begins to change. As the auctioneer carries out his gruesome and mysterious plan, the Moores and their neighbors begin to lose their freedom, their property… and perhaps even their lives.
The Auctioneer, now available in a new edition, features a foreword by Grady Hendrix (How to Sell a Haunted House, The Southern Book Club’s Guide to Slaying Vampires).
