The police never suspected a serial killer was at large until they found the third murdered boy, the first white victim, his body draped over a tomb in a London graveyard. Suddenly a series of crimes and a potential public relations disaster have Scotland Yard on the defensive, scrambling to apprehend a maniac while avoiding accusations of racism.Detective Superintendent Thomas Lynley, distracted by concerns for his pregnant wife, has been assigned to the investigation, along with his disgraced partner, Barbara Havers, who's fighting for her professional future. Winston Nkata, deservedly, if hastily, promoted to detective sergeant, is the black face who will speak to the media. But none of them can imagine the tenacity and ingenuity of the killer they seek . . . and no one is prepared for the savage, shocking instant when everything will change forever.

Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley risks his career when Eugenie Davies is brutally murdered and discovers that she had been tied to an old murder investigation that could possibly involve his superior, Superintendent Malcolm Webberly, and as Thomas and his partners search for the truth, they must delve into dark secrets and passions of a prominent family to catch a killer.

Londra, 1885. Il dottor Jekyll è riuscito nel suo esperimento e ha dato vita a Hyde, essere demoniaco e malvagio, puro distillato del male. Ma la storia non è come ce l'ha raccontata Stevenson. Perché Hyde non è morto nel laboratorio di Jekyll: è sopravvissuto per architettare un piano diabolico. Di fronte a una tale minaccia, la polizia di Scotland Yard, con l'aiuto di uno zelante medico di nome Conan Doyle, si mette sulle sue tracce.
