USAs viktigste nålevende forfatter endelig tilbake med ny bok. Mississippi, 1980: Klokken tre om natten ikler Bobby Western seg våtdrakt og dykker ned i et mørkt hav. I et styrtet fly på havbunnen ser han ni døde passasjerer fastspent i setene, med flytende hår og tomme blikk. Den tiende passasjeren og flyets svarte boks er borte. Etter dette hjemsøkes Bobby Western av politimenn og myndigheter, av spøkelset etter faren som var med på oppfinnelsen av atombomben, og ikke minst av kjærligheten til søsteren som mistet forstanden. En av de største amerikanske forfatterne i vår tid, Cormac McCarthy, er endelig tilbake med en kompleks, dyp og elegant roman. Med Passasjeren leverer han nok et slagferdig epos om maskulinitet, krig, død, tap og skjønnhet.
