It was better than a hotel, this anonymous room on a secluded side street of a small country town. No register to sign, no questions asked, and for five bucks a man could have three hours of undisturbed, illicit lovemaking.Then one evening a man with a knife turned the love nest into a death chamber. The carpet was soaked with blood -- but where was the corpse?Meanwhile, a beautiful, promiscuous woman is missing -- along with the bundle of cash she'd had in her pocket. The truth behind it all will keep even veteran mystery fans guessing through the very last page.

Mary Russell, who originally appeared in King's The Beekeeper's Apprentice, now rejoins Sherlock Holmes in London as a 21-year-old Oxford graduate. A young woman, a member of the New Temple of God, has been murdered; her brother, a World War I veteran, is a heroin addict. Mary and Sherlock Holmes must solve the murder (and subsequent Temple killings), and help the brother recover from his addiction. An interesting twist to the tale is Mary's intensifying feelings for Holmes.
