In the rain-soaked streets of Oxford, a disgraced scholar becomes the only person capable of reading a killer's most dangerous language: ink. When a series of meticulously staged murders begins, each victim is found with a handwritten Latin note crafted in flawless Copperplate script, the crimes seem almost ritualistic-elegant, deliberate, and impossible to decode. But beneath the surface of these chilling deaths lies a hidden pattern, one that only a specialist in historical handwriting and forensic ink analysis can uncover.
