A terrifyingly prescient cult classic by the bestselling author of the Bernie Gunther series.
‘Chilling...absorbing...part techno-thriller, part futuristic detective story, part diary of a serial killer.’—The New York Times Book Review
LONDON, 2013. Serial killings have reached epidemic proportions—even with the widespread government use of DNA detection, brain-imaging, and the ‘punitive coma.’ Beautiful, whip-smart, and driven by demons of her own, Detective Isadora ‘Jake’ Jacowicz must stop a murderer, code-named ‘Wittgenstein,’ who has taken it upon himself to eliminate any man who has tested positive for a tendency towards violent behavior—even if his victim has never committed a crime. He is a killer whose intellectual brilliance is matched only by his homicidal madness.
Genre: Mystery
