Publisher's Summary:
The Alienist meets The Exorcist in Tallis' novel of psychological suspense, as an ambitious young doctor explores the dangerous border between science and the supernatural.
1873: When the ambitious Doctor Paul Clément takes a job on the island of Saint Sébastien, he has dreams of finding cures for tropical diseases. After witnessing the ritualistic murder of a young boy who was allegedly already dead, he is warned never to speak of what he has seen. Back in fin de siècle Paris, Paul's attention turns to studying the nervous system and resuscitation through electricity. Paul is told of patients who apparently died and were brought back to life, claiming to have witnessed what they believed to be Heaven while they lay between life and death. Using forbidden knowledge he swore never to use, he attempts to experience what everyone else has seen, but something goes horribly wrong. When Paul returns to the land of the living, is it possible that he could bring something else back with him, an unspeakable evil so powerful it can never be banished?
Members Reviews:
Interesting...but slow....
This was an interesting read, but it was extremely slow to read....It could have been so much better if it wasn't for that....If you are looking for a fast paced thriller that's fun to read, then this isn't for you......
Interesting Gilded Age Horror
Amazingly ambition and not completely satisfying, this is clearly the work of a bright new voice in British horror. Recommended for fans of possession, ghost stories and the Cathedral of Notre Dame.
Great read.
Not the same as the Lieberman series which I wish will return. But a real page turner non the less. Great read.
Five Stars
Arrived as Promised - great condition.
Tallis' novels set in Vienna with the policeman-psychiatrist team are GREAT!
Not a Lieberman story, which I didn't know when I purchased. Tallis' novels set in Vienna with the policeman-psychiatrist team are GREAT!
