LiteratureWinged Death
Winged Death follows a physician who uses his professional knowledge to murder a former friend, then finds himself pursued by an insect apparently carrying the victim’s consciousness. A journal records both the crime and the collapse of the killer’s confidence. The framing investigation in a South African hotel supplies evidence outside his own testimony, turning a story of calculated revenge into one of bodily and mental entrapment.
