Description
Set in the summer of 1870, Thames River Police commander William Monk investigates the murder of Hungarian businessman Imrus Fodor, who was found impaled by a bayonet at a riverfront warehouse. Fodor's fingers are broken, and 17 candles are arrayed nearby, all bloody, and two of an unusual blue. The victim's enigmatic countryman, Antal Dobokai, who discovered the body, serves as translator as Monk investigates London's close-knit Hungarian community. Leads are few, until identical murders occur. Londoners panic, ethnic tensions flare, and Monk's wife, Hester, becomes involved when a friend is suspected.
Description
En toda su carrera como comandante de la Polic?a Fluvial, Monk nunca hab?a visto una escena del crimen m?s espantosa: el propietario de un almac?n h?ngaro yace muerto en medio de su oficina cubierta de sangre, el pecho atravesado por una bayoneta y misteriosamente rodeado por diecisiete velas, sus mechas sumergidas en sangre. Al sospechar que el asesinato puede estar motivado por prejuicios ?tnicos, Monk se dirige a la comunidad h?ngara de Londres en busca de pistas. Con la ayuda de su esposa, la ex enfermera Hester, que est? lidiando con un veterano de guerra traumatizado posiblemente involucrado en los asesinatos, Monk combatir? la desconfianza, la hostilidad y las amenazas de las mismas personas que intenta proteger. A medida que se multiplica el n?mero de cad?veres, tambi?n aumenta la resistencia a la polic?a. En una carrera descontrolada contra la epidemia de terror que siembra el asesino, Monk deber? ser m?s implacable que nunca.
