Dundurn Press, Toronto, 2009, 1st pr.  ISBN 978-1-55488-405-6.  Flat signed and dated on title page.  MMPB, 332 pages.  Wraps have very light edge and cover wear, tight binding.  Interior clean and unmarked with very lightly tanning pages; gently read if at all.  ‘The discovery of two headless corpses dressed in colonial clothing and locked in a grisly embrace draws Detectives Miranda Quin and David Morgan of the Toronto Police Service into a Gothic mixture of sex and death that ultimately threatens their survival.  What if the difference between good and evil is only perception?  Beginning with morbid curiosity, Miranda and Morgan get caught up in a story of inspired depravity. … this perverse account of love, lust and murder builds to a horrific crescendo.’ (from rear wrap)
