“Delicately textured. . . achingly compassionate. . . gripping. . . . It’s one of George’s best, and that’s saying something.” —Seattle Times
The #1 New York Times bestselling author’s chilling 13th novel in the Inspector Lynley series
Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley faces the greatest challenge of his career.
When an adolescent boy’s nude body is found draped over a tomb in a graveyard, the police recognize the work of a serial killer who’s been murdering boys in London. This is the killer’s fourth victim but the first to be white.
Hoping to avoid charges of institutionalized prejudice in their failure to pursue the earlier crimes to their conclusion, New Scotland Yard takes the case and hands it over to Lynley and his colleagues Detective Constable Barbara Havers and Detective Sergeant Winston Nkata. The killer is a psychopath who does not intend to be stopped. But a devastating tragedy within their ranks causes the police to fumble in their pursuit, which may bring more fatal consequences.

Den tog tid och kändes seg först men författaren kan till skillnad från många andra deckarförfattare få till bra slut. Har öst alla böcker förut men innehållet i denna har jag sett på teve. Går dock aldrig att jämföra med boken!Härligt att höra olika dialekter - detta kommer inte fram på svenska. Så jag blev nöjd fast det tog tid o koncentration.

Lite oväntade svängar i denna bok i klassisk engelsk stil. Lite störande musik inblandat i uppläsningen.
