Queen of Angels - Paperback

by Greg Bear (Author)

In a world of wonders, wealth, and "perfect" mental health, a famous poet commits gruesome murder . . . Why? That crime, that question, leads a policewoman to a jungle of torture and forgotten gods; a writer to the bohemian shadows of a vast city; and a scientist directly into the mind--the nightmare soul--of the psychopath himself . . .
