In the dynamic and dangerous Vienna of 1903, a brilliant psychoanalyst and a brave detective battle to catch criminals who commit the most clever and brutal crimes.
 
Detective Inspector Oskar Reinhardt finds that young women are being slain in an unnerving-and ingenious-manner, with a small, almost undetectable, hat pin. For Dr. Max Liebermann, the killer is unique in the annals of psychopathology, one who murders in the midst of consensual love. Is the culprit a patient, one who swears he has a double, a shadow figure that is far more forward (in fact, indecent) with women? As danger mounts, Liebermann must find the answer while struggling with his own forbidden desire for a female patient.
Industry Reviews
PRAISE FOR Vienna Twilight "[T]he best, of Tallis's Max Liebermann books....the story not only provides a glimpse of Austrian politics, society, music and literature at the time but also gives a keen insight into the early development of Freudian psychoanalysis. The most compelling feature of the book, however, is the plot..... With numerous unexpected plot twists, captivating characters, intriguing intellectual interplay between Reinhardt and Liebermann, and masterful writing, this is a must-read for all mystery buffs." -- Booklist, starred review

"Meticulous...Liebermann's fifth once more folds a nifty mystery into a fascinating portrait of a unique time. And there's a nice surprise twist." -- Kirkus Reviews
