Amid the snow and ice, a killer embarks upon a bizarre campaign of murder. Vicious mutilation, a penchant for arcane symbols, and a seemingly random choice of victim are his most distinctive peculiarities. Detective Inspector Oskar Rheinhardt summons a young disciple of Freud - his friend Dr. Max Liebermann - to assist him with the case. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe investigation draws them into the sphere of Vienna's secret societies - a murky underworld of German literary scholars, race theorists, and scientists inspired by the new English evolutionary theories. At first, the killer's mind seems impenetrable - his behaviour and cryptic clues impervious to psychoanalytic interpretation; however, gradually, it becomes apparent that an extraordinary and shocking rationale underlies his actions ...\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAgainst this backdrop of mystery and terror, Liebermann struggles with his own demons. The treatment of a patient suffering from \u003ci\u003eparanoia erotica\u003c\/i\u003e and his own fascination with the enigmatic Englishwoman Amelia Lydgate raise doubts concerning the propriety of his imminent marriage. To resolve the dilemma, he must entertain the unthinkable - risking disgrace and accusations of cowardice.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tallis, Frank","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":49674813669715,"sku":"9780099471325","price":14.27,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"Good","offer_id":53082527990099,"sku":"XG80099471325","price":4.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":47569823564115,"sku":"XV80099471325","price":6.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0616\/4001\/6057\/files\/tallis-frank-frank-tallis-vienna-blood-2007-paperback-59706960871763.jpg?v=1771676239","url":"https:\/\/chaptersbookstore.com\/products\/vienna-blood-vienna-blood-2","provider":"Chapters Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
