First edition. Fine in dust jacket. In the grip of a Siberian winter in 1902, a serial killer in Vienna embarks upon a bizarre campaign of murder. Vicious mutilation, a penchant for arcane symbols, and a seemingly random choice of victim are his most distinctive peculiarities. Detective Inspector Oskar Rheinhardt summons a young disciple of Freud, his friend Dr. Max Liebermann, to assist him with the case. The investigation draws them into the murky underworld of German literary scholars, race theorists, and scientists inspired by the new evolutionary theories coming out of England.
