Résumé
Victoria, British Columbia. 1869. In a forest a mutilated body is discovered: Dr. McCrory, an American 'alienist' whose methods include phrenology, Mesmerism, and sexual-mystical 'magnetation'. Chad Hobbes, arrived from England, is the policeman who must solve the crime. Could the… murderer be a Tsimshian medicine man, Wiladzap, who is immediately arrested? But everyone who has known Dr. McCrory - respectable or not - has something to hide. c2013.
