HTML:<p><b>An infamous nineteenth-century photograph is the key to a modern murder mystery in this "clever psychological thriller" from the Edgar Award–winner (<i>Library Journal</i>, starred review).</b><br /> <br /> In 1882, the young Lou Andreas-Salome—writer, psychoanalyst and femme fatale—appears with Friedrich Nietzche and another man in a bizarre photograph taken in Luzern, Switzerland. Over thirty years later, an art student in Freud's Vienna presents Lou Salome with his own drawing based on the infamous photograph.<br /> <br /> In present-day California, performance artist Tess Berenson learns that the previous occupant of her downtown Oakland loft was a professional dominatrix named Chantal—who apparently left in a hurry. Instantly fascinated, Tess's curiosity only intensifies when Chantal's body is discovered in the trunk of a stolen car at Oakland airport.<br /> <br /> Embarking on an obsessive investigation, Tess discovers a link between Chantal and the original Luzern photograph. But as she gets closer to the shocking truth, Tess finds that she too is in jeopardy . . .<br /> <br /> "Edgar winner Bayer continues his romance with psychoanalysis with a riff on Lou Andreas-Salomé's persona as analyst and femme fatale . . . Nazis, sadomasochism, and psychoanalysis always provide a heady mix, and a little murder thrown in pushes Bayer's latest into the radioactive zone." —<i>Kirkus Reviews</i><br /> <br /> "Bayer chillingly and skillfully depicts the divide between good and evil. Suggest to Thomas Harris and Michael Connelly devotees."—<i>Library Journal</i> (starred review)<br /> <br /> "[A] crafty whodunit . . . Bayer keeps the suspense high as he artfully toggles among story lines and thoughtfully develops his characters" —<i>Publishers Weekly</i><br /> <br /></p>.
