Fresh off the case of an deranged student who murdered his landlady, noted police investigator Porfiry Petrovich barely requires a breath before a bizarre and incredibly grisly double murder lands him back on the streets of the tsarist St. Petersburg he knows all too well. The sardonic sleuth follows a trail from the drinking dens of the Haymarket district to a altogether more genteel stratum of society-a hunt leading him to a conclusion even he will find shocking. Within the tradition of such first-rate historical novels such as The Alienist and The Dante Club, The Gentle Axe is atmospheric and tense storytelling from its dramatic opening to its stunning climax.
