Cape Fear
About this book
Originally titled "The Executioners," this is John D. MacDonald's most famous stand-alone novel (1957). Adapted twice for the big screen as "Cape Fear."An insane criminal threatens to destroy a family, and the police are powerless to protect them. For fourteen years, convicted rapist Max Cady nursed his hatred for attorney Sam Bowden into an insane passion for revenge. Cady lived only for the day he would be free -- free to track down and destroy the man who had put him behind bars. Murder was merciful compared to what Cady had in mind -- and what Cady had in mind was Bowden's innocent and lovely teenage daughter.
