«Koko» is the psychological horror novel by Peter Straub, published by Ediciones B in paperback (822 pages, in Spanish).
A shared secret forces four Vietnam veterans —a doctor, a lawyer, a worker, and a writer— to follow the trail of a figure from the past who has returned to kill. The pursuit starts in Washington D.C., crosses the cemeteries and poor neighborhoods of the Far East, and ends in the urban jungle of New York.
It is the first installment of the Blue Rose trilogy.
For readers of psychological horror and suspense with a Vietnam War backdrop.
Peter Francis Straub was an American novelist and poet. He had success with several horror and supernatural fiction novels, among them Julia (1975), Ghost Story (1979) and The Talisman (1984), the latter co-written with Stephen King. He explored the mystery genre with the Blue Rose trilogy, consisting of Koko (1988), Mystery (1990) and The Throat (1993). He fused the supernatural with crime fiction in Lost Boy, Lost Girl (2003) and the related In the Night Room (2004). For the Library of America, he edited the volume H. P. Lovecraft: Tales and the anthology American Fantastic Tales. Straub received such literary honors as the Bram Stoker Award, World Fantasy Award, and International Horror Guild Award.
