Facinating and intricate sci-fi/murder mystery. Men who are prone to murder are themselves being killed, and the confessed murderer is hung up on discussing philosophy with the female detective hunting him down. Great characters, interesting take on the old social safety vs. personal freedom debate, very interesting sexual politics. Does drag a bit when it gets too deep into the philosophy.
