商品簡介
Vienna, 1902. Already in the grip of a brutal winter, the city faces the greatest menace of the new century: a serial killer. In a seemingly random pattern, a madman is murdering prostitutes, leaving strange crosslike symbols in his wake. The alarming series of slayings reunites Detective Oscar Rheinhardt, a specialist in new methods of detection, and Dr. Max Liebermann, an expert in Freudian psychology. With their combined skills, Rheinhardt and Liebermann hope to catch a fiend whose savage handiwork reminds them of the infamous and unsolved Jack the Ripper murders. But soon the investigation leads to Vienna's murky underworld, whose secret societies promise to disgorge an even darker evil.
