' You go to work & you may be shot dead. You imagine being horribly maimed in a bomb blast. You come home & wonder if you'll be shot at the front door. You go to bed with a revolver on the bedside cabinet. At times you wonder if this is really part of the UK. This was the world inhabited by Richard Latham during his service with the Royal Ulster Constabulary by some to be one of the finest police forces in the world, its officers are looked upon by others as the evil storm-troopers of Unionism & the British Goverment. The RUC is now a force undergoing sweeping change in response to Republican demands, yet for 30 years it stood alongside the British Army in a war with Republicans that killed over 300 policemen & injured thousands more. For 14 years Latham, an Englishman, served as a police officer, both in England & in Ulster
- before transferring from the English Special Branch to the RUC in 1991. Deadly Beat is his raw & hardhitting story, giving a unique insight into the grim reality of policing Ulster. He charts the dedication & restraint of officers who witnessed their colleagues die, yet were obliged to play within the rules of the law. Rules so loaded in favour of the killer that comparatively few were brought to justice.

A sexual predator is at large on the streets of Imperial Vienna & Detective Inspector Oskar Rheinhardt appeals to his friend, psychoanalyst Dr. Max Liebermann, for assistance.

Early signs indicate that the killer is no ordinary 'lust murderer' but an entirely new phenomenon, his particular deviance revealing the darker preoccupations of the age.
To understand his behaviour, Liebermann must employ the latest developments in psychoanalysis & make a journey into uncharted regions of the human mind.

Alongside the unfolding of this disturbing case, Liebermann must treat his own patients, including a man who claims to have seen his double
- the doppelganger of Germanic folklore
- an experience believed to be an omen of death. As Liebermann discovers more about this seemingly harmless man, he becomes convinced that his hallucinations are caused by a traumatic memory, buried deep in his unconscious. Could a mysterious dream hold the key?

As the investigations proceed, Liebermann & Rheinhardt find themselves drawn into the worlds of art & couture, worlds in which glamorous appearances mask the most sinister secrets.
