About This Item

Warner Books, 1987. mass market paperback. good. 284pp. "The first victim was a priest without an enemy. The second victim, a monster of a man who spread hate wherever he went. The third corpse was that of a sweet spinster who was the soul of living kindness; the next, a seductive temptress who was the embodiment of sensual lust. And Adam Dalgliesh knew that unless he could find the hidden pattern in this seemingly senseless series of slayings, the nightmare of death would go on and on..." #00588.
