Reviews"EVOCATIVE . . . SHOCKING . . . The denouement is tense, with a few unexpected twists and with the tidiness and intelligence that make Perry the queen of the British historical mystery." --Chicago Tribune "PERRY HAS THE GREAT GIFT OF MAKING IT ALL SEEM IMMEDIATE AND VERY MUCH ALIVE." --The Philadelphia Inquirer

SynopsisFor superintendent Thomas Pitt, the sight of the dead man riding the morning tide of the Thames is unforgettable. He lies in a battered punt drifting through the morning mist, his arms and legs chained to the boat's sides. He is clad in a torn green gown and flowers bestrew his battered body. Pitt's determined search for answers to the victim's identity leads him deep into London's bohemia to the theatre where beautiful Cecily Antrim is outraging society with her bold portrayal of a modern woman--and into studios where masters of light and shadow are experimenting with the fascinating new art of photography. But only Pitt's most relentless pursuit enables him to identify the wildfire passions raging through this tragedy of good and evil, to hunt down the guilty and protect the innocent.
