In London in 2013, a psychopath is leaving a macabre trail of blood throughout the city. Chief Inspector Jakowicz, in charge of solving the case, discovers that the killer is called Wittgenstein and his victims Darwin, Byron, Kant, Spinoza, Keats, Locke, Dickens, Bertrand Russell, Socrates... They are code names, used to preserve the anonymity of people registered in the Lombroso Program, which the Government has launched in an experimental phase to keep all citizens potentially predisposed to committing violent crimes under control. This futuristic thriller introduces us to a world of computers, television screens, virtual reality devices, police corruption and real estate speculation. A novel that invites reflection on the darkest instincts of the human mind.
Philip Ballantyne Kerr was a Scottish author, best known for his Bernie Gunther series of historical detective thrillers.
