When the Metropolitan Police fail to realise a serial killer is at work, London ignites over the fact that the killer's victims are young black and mixed race boys. Institutionalised racism is claimed by the community's activists and tabloids alike. Acting Superintendent Thomas Lynley is given the case, and his Scotland Yard task force is soon handling more killings and a looming tragedy. Elizabeth George brings to the familiar subject of the serial killer a freshness and clarity of vision that provide illuminating insight into the psychological complexity of the tortured criminal mind. She does so within a richly textured, thrillingly suspenseful narrative that defies any reader to predict its outcome. Nor does she neglect our favourite characters, whose private lives provide an engrossing counterpoint to their professional duties.

Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley risks his career when Eugenie Davies is brutally murdered and discovers that she had been tied to an old murder investigation that could possibly involve his superior, Superintendent Malcolm Webberly, and as Thomas and his partners search for the truth, they must delve into dark secrets and passions of a prominent family to catch a killer. Reprint.

Londra, 1885. Il dottor Jekyll è riuscito nel suo esperimento e ha dato vita a Hyde, essere demoniaco e malvagio, puro distillato del male. Ma la storia non è come ce l'ha raccontata Stevenson. Perché Hyde non è morto nel laboratorio di Jekyll: è sopravvissuto per architettare un piano diabolico. Di fronte a una tale minaccia, la polizia di Scotland Yard, con l'aiuto di uno zelante medico di nome Conan Doyle, si mette sulle sue tracce.
