Anne Perry, that incomparable novelist of life in Victorian Great britain, has once again surpassed herself with this 21st installment of her New York Times best-selling William Monk series. In Corridors of the Nights, nurse Hester Monk and her hubby, William, commander of the Thames River Law enforcement officials, do desperate struggle with two obsessed experts who, in the name of treatment, have considered homicide. The monomaniacal Rand brothers - Magnus, a cunning doctor, and Hamilton, a genius chemist - are utterly ruthless in their pursuit of an end to the fatal "white-blood disease". In London's Royal Naval Hospital annex, Hester is tending one of the brothers' dying patients - wealthy Bryson Radnor - when she stumbles after three vulnerable, terrified small children and learns, to her horror, that they've been secretly purchased and imprisoned by the Rands for experimental purposes. However the Rand brothers are too close to a miracle stop to allow their tests to be shown. Before Hester can show the truth, she, too, becomes a prisoner. As Monk and his faithful friends - distinguished attorney Oliver Rathbone and reformed brothel keeper Squeaky Robinson among them - scour London's grimy roadways and the stunning English countryside searching on her behalf, Hester's time, as well as the children's, is quickly draining away. Taut with intrigue and laced with white-knuckled terror, Corridors of the Nights is Anne Perry at her wonderful, unforgettable best.
