THE DRAGNET

About the Book

‘Alexis is a womanizer recovering from a temporary illness that cut short his previous associations. He was coming to terms with his new life that limits his affairs and leaves him with his own thoughts. But fate had to intervene in the form of a university girl he befriends who gets killed suddenly, leaving him with the unfinished remains of a novel by his favourite writer. That manuscript leads him into a sleepy, mysterious town which was the scene of a disappearance a few months ago. And his pursuit for a successful ending to the novel leads him into a moral and intellectual labyrinth- at once sensual and sinister- that shows no sign of ending.
