A Philosophical Investigation by Philip Kerr

A terrifyingly prescient cult classic by the bestselling author of the Bernie Gunther series. 

"Chilling...absorbing...part techno-thriller, part futuristic detective story, part diary of a serial killer."--The New York Times Book Review
 

LONDON, 2013. Serial killings have reached epidemic proportions--even with the widespread government use of DNA detection, brain-imaging, and the "punitive coma." Beautiful, whip-smart, and driven by demons of her own, Detective Isadora "Jake" Jacowicz must stop a murderer, code-named "Wittgenstein," who has taken it upon himself to eliminate any man who has tested posi­tive for a tendency towards violent behavior--even if his victim has never committed a crime. He is a killer whose intellectual brilliance is matched only by his homicidal madness.

Philip Kerr is the author of the WWII Bernie Gunther detective books and the children's fantasy series Children of the Lamp, both of which have been New York Times bestsellers. He resides in the United Kingdom.
