New York City is caught in the cold grip of a brutal serial killer who savagely rapes and murders his young, blonde victims. As the death count rises, he sends taunting notes to the newspapers, all with unsettling references to his obsession with classical music. The media is titillated and has dubbed him the "Symphony Slasher." Young, blonde Zelly Wyche has a new baby and a happy life with her dependable electrician husband. But she, too, is petrified by the madness and the unthinkable tragedy of the murders. With time running out, the Slasher's sole survivor teams up with another victim's brother to mount a desperate vigilante manhunt, and a chill runs up Zelly's spine. She is beginning to wonder if the killer could be closer than she thinks. But no — she has to be dead wrong...

(The tension mounts from the very first pages when little ...)
The tension mounts from the very first pages when little Emily Lookinland is nabbed from the park the second her mother turns her back - and the pressure doesn't let up until the very last page is turned. Masterfully executed, the pulsating suspense and intense pacing derive not from any overt violence but from the psychologically riveting relationship that forms between Emily and her captor - and the dreaded anticipation of what will happen next. Jessie Hunter expertly unfolds this taut drama, taking us inside the mind of the terrified, resourceful, and imaginative little girl, and also inside the mind of the bizarrely off-balance killer who is one minute a frightful monster and the next a confused, childlike, even pitiable figure. To add to the tension, we witness firsthand the terrifying, painful ordeal Emily's mother experiences from the moment her daughter is stolen away, and each agonizing second she is kept from her.

(In Belle Époque Paris, the morgue is the place to see and...)
In Belle Époque Paris, the morgue is the place to see and be seen..."This morning I was called upon to photograph the dead again." So begins the story of Edouard Mas, a photographer's assistant with a detective's soul. Edouard's job is to take pictures of corpses before they are carted off to the Paris Morgue. If the bodies are unidentified, they will be put behind glass for the whole city to view, in a morbid display of lost and found. Edouard begins to come across more and more bodies stripped of their identification and laid out in methodical poses, and he knows he is dealing with those who dabble in art—the art of death. The morgue—their museum. Edouard's investigation takes him from the sterile halls of La Salpêtrière to the opulent, smoke-filled soirees of high society, but he must do everything in his power to stop the artists of death, before they go after somebody he loves … In exquisite prose — so vivid you can almost taste the absinthe and hear the rustling skirts of the Moulin Rouge showgirls — Hunter tells an unforgettable tale of murder and lust in the City of Light.
