This is an electrifying historical thriller - a journey into the dark streets of Prussia where a deadly serial killer has a city at his mercy. It's the beginning of the eighteenth century, and Prussian magistrate Hanno Stiffeniis has been called to investigate a spate of murders which has reduced Konigsberg to a state of terror. Four people have died, and there is no sign of an end to the killing spree. When the killer tries to murder him, the magistrate finds himself confronted by the demons of his own past. Therein lies the sinister source of those murders, and the true reason he has been enticed back to Konigsberg...

Fantástico!

Great Book. The story is quite detailed and really pulling into it. The narration full of details makes you read more and more. Though sometimes you get frustrates when the main character swirls around the case always not getting to the murder. You really don't know who is the murder until close to the end. I highly recommend this book and wonder why they didn't make a movie out of it!
