Description
Dobson, New York, 1905. Detective Simon Ziele lost his fiancée in the General Slocum ferry disastera thousand perished on that summer day in 1904 when an onboard fire burned the boat down in the waters of the East River. Still reeling from the tragedy, Ziele transferred to a police department north of New York, to escape the city and all the memories it conjured. But only a few months into his new life in a quiet country town, hes faced with the most shocking homicide of his career to date: Young Sarah Wingate has been brutally murdered in her own bedroom in the middle of an otherwise calm and quiet winter afternoon. After just one day of investigation, Simons contacted by Columbia Universitys noted criminologist Alistair Sinclair, who offers a startling claim about one of his patients, Michael Fromleythat the facts of the murder bear an uncanny resemblance to Fromleys deranged mutterings. But what would have led Fromley, with his history of violent behavior and brutal fantasies, to seek out Sarah, a notable mathematics student and a proper young lady who has little in common with his previous targets? Is Fromley really a murderer, or is someone mimicking him? This is what Simon Ziele must find out, with the help of the brilliant but self-interested Alistair Sinclairbefore the killer strikes again.
