About this title

Synopsis

Feisty academic Terri Williams moves to Oxford to resume her abandoned doctorate in detective fiction. However, her new home was previously the scene of a savage sexual murder, and Terri soon finds the past returning to invade the present with horrific consequences.

Review

In the shadowy corridors of a prestigious university, a beautiful woman is entering the darkest place of all: the twisted mind of a killer....

"Strong works out his whodunit plot with care and shows no mercy in exposing the loose morals of Oxford's hedonistic literary crowd."
--The New York Times Book Review

"The classic English mystery meets the modern American thriller...and the result is bloody screaming murder."
--Matthew Hall, author of The Art of Breaking Glass
