Summary

Summary

Kay Norris, a successful single woman of thirty-nine, moves into the posh Carnegie Hill district of Manhattan's Upper East Side, into an apartment in a slender high rise, a ""sliver"" building.

A man watches her. He watches her unpack, watches her make her bed. He owns the building; a shocking secret is concealed within its brick and concrete. Sliver is a hypnotic story of obsession, suspense, and stunning surprises. It is a novel about ultimate power, and the temptations the use of that power brings.

With ice cold precision, Levin, the author of Rosemary's Baby and The Stepford Wives, creates a mesmerizing story that culminates in a scene of electrifying suspense.

Editorial Reviews

Editorial Reviews

Sliver is the ultimate fin de siècle horror novel, a fiendish good-bye wave to trendy urban living in the last decade of the twentieth century. Mr. Levin has in Sliver created the apartment dweller’s worst nightmare. As always, his characters have a texture and a reality that’s almost eerie, and the narrative is as stripped-down and efficient as an automatic weapon.” Stephen King
“Levin’s latest thriller, Sliver, is as successful a page-turner as his first, A Kiss before Dying, thirty-eight years ago…Ira Levin never gets serious, he just gets better.” Entertainment Weekly
“Fast-moving…[with] a slam-bang finale.” Publishers Weekly
