Summary
New York is a city of secrets, but the Hudson has begun to give up its dead. For six weeks, a severed left hand has washed ashore each Sunday, grisly curiosities to most, but to Adeline Endicott, a chilling signal.
She is certain the latest belongs to her missing sister, Elizabeth. With the police stalling, Adeline seeks help from Dr. Laszlo Kreizler, the alienist whose insight may illuminate the darkness surrounding the case.
Intrigued by her resolve, he agrees to investigate and brings Sara Howard’s fledgling agency into the search. Adeline refuses to stay on the sidelines; she insists on joining the hunt and names her prime suspect—her brother-in-law. Her own unhappy marriage only sharpens her desperation to reclaim her sister’s story.
As the investigation deepens, so does the subtle connection forming between her and Laszlo, a quiet pull neither expected. To uncover Elizabeth’s fate, they must confront not only the mind of a killer but the cost of letting their guarded hearts open.
