Sinossi
Nella selvaggia e pericolosa brughiera di Calder Moor, nel Derbyshire, vengono ritrovati i corpi senza vita di due giovani, un uomo e una donna: uccisi, con rara ferocia, e non nello stesso modo. Per Thomas Lynley, ispettore di New Scotland Yard, questa indagine segna l'inizio di uno dei periodi più tormentati della sua carriera. La ragazza uccisa, infatti, è l'unica figlia di un ex agente dei servizi segreti, che Lynley considera il suo mentore.

Lynley manages to let his unacknowledged misogyny rule his r Leggi tutto
