A taut and relentlessly gripping thriller, Black Sunday marks Thomas Harris's explosive debut novel, setting the stage for a career that would define the genre. The novel chronicles a terrifying plot by Black September terrorists and a traumatised Vietnam War veteran to detonate a bomb aboard the Goodyear Blimp over the Super Bowl, threatening 80,000 innocent spectators. Against this ticking-clock backdrop, Israeli intelligence agent David Kabakov races to uncover and dismantle the conspiracy before it reaches its catastrophic conclusion. Harris writes with a cinematic urgency and a meticulous attention to authentic detail that makes every page crackle with tension. A masterwork of suspense, this novel established Harris as a towering voice in modern thriller fiction long before Hannibal Lecter entered the cultural imagination.
