The \u003ci\u003ePlain Dealer\u003c\/i\u003e calls Monk \"a marvelously dark, brooding creation\"--and, true to form, this masterpiece is as deceptively deep and twisty as the Thames. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e As commander of the River Police, Monk is accustomed to violent death, but the mutilated female body found on Limehouse Pier one chilly December morning moves him with horror and pity. The victim's name is Zenia Gadney. Her waterfront neighbors can tell him little--only that the same unknown gentleman had visited her once a month for many years. She must be a prostitute, but--described as quiet and kempt--she doesn't appear to be a fallen woman. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e What sinister secrets could have made poor Zenia worth killing? And why does the government keep interfering in Monk's investigation? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e While the public cries out for blood, Monk, his spirited wife, Hester, and their brilliant barrister friend, Oliver Rathbone, search for answers. From dank waterfront alleys to London's fabulously wealthy West End, the three trail an ice-blooded murderer toward the unbelievable, possibly unprovable truth--and ultimately engage their adversaries in an electric courtroom duel. But unless they can work a miracle, a monumental evil will go unpunished and an innocent person will hang. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Anne Perry has never worn her literary colors with greater distinction than in \u003ci\u003eA Sunless Sea, \u003c\/i\u003e a heart-pounding novel of intrigue and suspense in which Monk is driven to make the hardest decision of his life. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eIncludes an excerpt from Anne Perry's next William Monk novel, \u003ci\u003eBlind Justice\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003ePraise for \u003ci\u003eA Sunless Sea\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"Anne Perry's Victorian mysteries are marvels.\"--\u003ci\u003eThe New York Times Book Review\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"Unexpected twists and revelations keep the plot humming with typical Anne Perry deception and wit.\"--Bookreporter \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \"Much more than a whodunit, this book  is] possibly the author's best yet.\"\u003ci\u003e--Publishers Weekly \u003c\/i\u003e(starred review)\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAnne Perry\u003c\/b\u003e is the bestselling author of two acclaimed series set in Victorian England: the William Monk novels, including \u003ci\u003eBlind Justice\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eA Sunless Sea\u003c\/i\u003e, the Charlotte and Thomas Pitt novels, including \u003ci\u003eDeath on Blackheath\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eMidnight at Marble Arch. \u003c\/i\u003eShe is also the author of a series of five World War I novels, as well as eleven holiday novels, most recently \u003ci\u003eA New York Christmas, \u003c\/i\u003e and a historical novel, \u003ci\u003eThe Sheen on the Silk, \u003c\/i\u003e set in the Ottoman Empire.
