A determined detective must stop a murderous fanatic at the 1915 San Francisco World's Fair in this riveting second installment of the Nightingales Detective Series.
Nine years after San Francisco's great Earthquake and Fires, the city is on the brink of a new era. The World's Fair is opening to herald the completion of the Panama Canal and display the wonders of the new technological age.
But danger lurks behind the glittering façade, as a murderous fanatic stalks one of the fair's main attractions: the brilliant mesmerist J.D. Duncan. When J.D. receives a threatening note from his stalker, homicide detective Randall Blackburn and his adopted son must combine their intuitive profiling skills to solve a murder that hasn't happened yet.
Out of the public eye, Duncan is battling an even greater enemy: his own advancing early onset dementia, threatening to destroy the powerful memory and sharp mind that made him famous. As the detectives work to unmask his elusive stalker, J.D. will work twice as hard to hide his condition and keep doing the work that defines him-no matter what it takes.
Filled with intricate historical detail and page-turning twists, The Hidden Man brings to life the excitement of the 1915 San Francisco World's Fair and the people who made it happen. Anthony Flacco takes the reader on an unforgettable journey in this page-turner about a brilliant mesmerist, a vengeful killer, and the great fair that tied their fates together.
