The eponymous Azorno is cited as the protagonist of Sampel’s book, yet Sampel is also called Azorno, both by himself and by the women who may or may not surround him in reality—whatever reality may be.

...didn't take police long to pinpoint a suspect in the grisly murder of Annie Le, the 24-year-old Yale graduate student found dead in a research lab Sept. 13 - the day she was supposed to be married. Almost immediately, suspicion congealed around Raymond Clark, 24, a technician with access to Le's lab, who had reportedly entered the building as many as 10 times the day she disappeared and bore suspicious wounds on his chest, arms and back.
