Annotation
Description <p>This chilling new mystery in the USA Today bestselling series by Charles Finch takes readers back to Charles Lenox&rsquo;s very first case and the ruthless serial killer who would set him on the course to become one of London&rsquo;s most brilliant detectives. London, 1850: A young Charles Lenox struggles to make a name for himself as a detective&hellip;without a single case. Scotland Yard refuses to take him seriously and his friends deride him for attempting a profession at all. But when an anonymous writer sends a letter to the paper claiming to have committed the perfect crime&mdash;and promising to kill again&mdash;Lenox is convinced that this is his chance to prove himself. The writer&rsquo;s first victim is a young woman whose body is found in a naval trunk, caught up in the rushes of a small islets in the middle of the Thames. With few clues to go on, Lenox endeavors to solve the crime before another innocent life is lost. When the killer&rsquo;s sights are turned toward those whom Lenox holds most dear, the stakes are raised and Lenox is trapped in a desperate game of cat and mouse. In the tradition of Sherlock Holmes, this newest mystery in the Charles Lenox series pits the young detective against a maniacal murderer who would give Professor Moriarty a run for his money.</p>
