Seven years have passed since FBI Agent Clarice Starling solved the Buffalo Bill case. Narrated in the third person perspective, the story begins in Washington, D.C.
In 2013, NBC adapted the novel into a three-season television series created by Bryan Fuller and starring Mads Mikkelsen as Hannibal Lecter. In 2001, Hannibal was adapted into a major motion picture directed by Sir Ridley Scott and starring Anthony Hopkins as Hannibal Lecter and Julianne Moore as Clarice Starling. The novel has been called “the exquisite satisfaction of a truly great melodrama” by The Guardian and “relentless – endlessly terrifying” by The Los Angeles Times The Denver Post asserts it will “scare your socks off.” Famed horror scribe Stephen King considers Hannibal one of the two scariest novels ever written, alongside The Exorcist. When Mason Verger, a vengeful victim and sadistic psychopath, targets Lecter, he must thwart Verger’s plot to use FBI Agent Clarice Starling as bait to lure Lecter into his trap. The story continues Lecter’s time on the run in Florence, Italy. Book 3 in the Hannibal Lecter series, American author Thomas Harris’s mystery crime thriller and horror novel, Hannibal (1999), is set seven years after Lecter escaped a maximum security mental institution at the end of Silence of the Lambs.
