The Face of a Stranger by Anne Perry

In this exhilarating series debut, police detective William Monk must solve the mystery of his own past.

His name, they tell him, is William Monk, and he is a London police detective. But the accident that felled him has left him with only half a life; his memory and his entire past have vanished. As he tries to hide the truth, Monk returns to work and is assigned to investigate the brutal murder of a Crimean War hero and man about town. Which makes Monk's efforts doubly difficult, since he's forgotten his professional skills along with everything else.

"Richly textured with the sights and sounds of London and its countryside . . . Solidly absorbing and Perry's best to date."--Kirkus Reviews

Anne Perry is the New York Times bestselling author of two acclaimed Victorian England series: the Charlotte and Thomas Pitt novels, which include Buckingham Palace Gardens and Long Spoon Lane, and the William Monk novels, which include Execution Dock and Black Assassin. She has also written a series of five World War I novels, as well as seven holiday novels, the most recent of which is A Christmas Odyssey, and a historical tale set in the Ottoman Empire called The Sheen on the Silk. Anne Perry is a Scottish author.
