"A multilayered thriller that races to an explosive conclusion."--People Captain Marcus Graver, working out of the Houston P.D.'s Criminal Intelligence Division, has made a career of collecting other people's secrets. But it takes a bullet to the brain of one of his own investigators to reveal the darkest secrets of all. Officially the death of Arthur Tisler is a suicide. But Graver's seen the files of Tisler's last case and he refuses to bury his questions with the corpse. His instincts tell him that Tisler was onto something big--big enough to cost the investigator his life. And the more Graver digs, the more he's convinced that the trail of corruption leads back to his own command. Now he must do the most dangerous thing any cop can do: go outside the department. He must enter a shadowy labyrinth of lies and deception where he can trust no one, not even his closest friends and colleagues. And waiting at the center of the maze is a mysterious, sadistic genius, a pair of beautiful assassins, and a thread of clues that will lead to a dark rendezvous with the truth--and death. "Relentlessly paced and adroitly imagined . . . sure to win [David] Lindsey numerous new fans--and thoroughly satisfy his current ones."--Publishers Weekly
“With a sure, steady hand Lindsey ratchets the suspense and sexual tension tighter and tighter, page by merciless page. The only mercy you’ll get is the word on the cover.”—Stephen ContsHouston is shattered by a shock wave of unbelievably vicious sex killings. And this time the pattern is unique—way out of line with traditional violent-crime psychology. In Detective Carmen Palma’s experience, a psychopath always chooses anonymous targets. But the Houston victims know and trust their killer: They meet willingly in hotel rooms, even in their homes. They don’t fight when the leather cuffs are fastened to their wrists and ankles. They don''t even struggle when the first blows fall . . . Palma’s first lightning instinct is that the victims expected their torture. They were practicing masochists, apart of a secret clique that includes some of the city''s most prominent women. They helped choreograph their own punishments—every blow. They just didn''t expect to die. . .

Lindsey Street in EC1 in the City of London was named after Mark John Lindsey who died in 1906.Many other families' stories are woven through the book including family trees for the Brackett, Harman, Fenwick, Starling, Tressider and Watson families.
