El autor de El club de la lucha sigue en la cúspide de sus poderes literarios: atrevido, desafiante y con un gran dominio del suspense, regresa con una novela sombría y espeluznante que reflexiona sobre la mercantilización del sufrimiento y el poder del arte.

Han pasado diecisiete años desde que Gates Foster perdió a su hija Lucy y desde entonces no ha dejado de buscarla. Ahora, un impactante e inesperado suceso le proporciona la primera pista significativa después de una década, y todo apunta a que está a punto de descubrir una verdad terrible.

Mientras tanto, Mitzi Ives ha logrado hacerse un hueco como ingeniera de sonido para la industria de Hollywood usando las mismas técnicas secretas que utilizaba su padre. Son especialmente célebres los horripilantes gritos que crea para el cine de terror, tan verosímiles y estremecedores que bien podrían ser reales.

Cuando las vidas de Gates y Mitzi se crucen, saldrán a la luz los atroces y violentos secretos que se ocultan tras la glamurosa fachada de Hollywood.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A father searching for his missing daughter is suddenly given hope when a major clue is discovered, but learning the truth could shatter the seemingly perfect image Hollywood is desperate to uphold.

Gates Foster lost his daughter, Lucy, seventeen years ago. He's never stopped searching. Suddenly, a shocking new development provides Foster with his first major lead in over a decade, and he may finally be on the verge of discovering the awful truth.

Meanwhile, Mitzi Ives has carved out a space among the Foley artists creating the immersive sounds giving Hollywood films their authenticity. Using the same secret techniques as her father before her, she's become an industry-leading expert in the sound of violence and horror, creating screams so bone-chilling, they may as well be real.

Soon Foster and Ives find themselves on a collision course that threatens to expose the violence hidden beneath Hollywood's glamorous façade. A grim and disturbing reflection on the commodification of suffering and the dangerous power of art, The Invention of Sound is Chuck Palahniuk at the peak of his literary powers -- his most suspenseful, most daring, and most genre-defying work yet.
