Reseña del editor:

An international sports star is found murderedher face mutilated in a bizarre, ritualistic manner. What is the significance of the poetic text the killer has left at the crime scene? Why did he surgically remove the victims left eye? And can a Cambridge lecturer help the police reconstruct the killers fantasy in time to save her own life? As Inspector John Underwood and his team work frantically to piece together the last hours of Olympic athlete Lucy Harrington, events take an unexpected turn. Harringtons murderer contacts English literature lecturer Heather Stussmann and invites her to explain his actions to the police. But another murder will take place before Stussmann finds the key to understanding the killers terrifying motive, which lies buried in the works of a poet who has been dead for nearly four hundred years. In The Yeares Midnight, author Ed OConnor has created a villain with an intellect as cunning as it is monstrous. Donnes cerebral poems, such as The Feaver and The First Anniversary, are ingeniously transmogrified into a thriller that melds metaphysics and mortality.
