About the book
Vienna, 1899. Maximilian von Attems paints the second rank of Viennese society superbly and kills for the Emperor out of an office hidden in the regulations for court mourning. Three men are dead in improbable rooms with no marks on them, and all three attended the same private demonstration in the Josefstadt within a fortnight of dying. Dr. Konrad Nachtigall is a physician of impeccable family who has discovered that what a mesmerist does to one subject can be done to a hall, and who believes that finding out how a thing works entitles a man to use it. Attems is given the case, an assistant of twenty-four he did not ask for, and one season to be right in.
