This historical thriller and crime novel is based on extensive historical facts and was written by Judd Rubenfeld, a renowned American expert in constitutional law and a professor at the Yale Law School.

In New York, one girl is murdered, and another is attacked—the killer is clearly the same person. The only survivor, a girl who has lost her memory and the ability to speak. At that time, Freud, who had just arrived in New York to give a series of lectures, accepted the consultation and participated in the case. Confidently basing his reasoning on the theory of female sexuality, he attempted to use "The Interpretation of Dreams" to analyze the baffling case, only to mislead his American follower Young, who helped the victim regain her memory in the wrong direction, and unexpectedly became entangled in a tumultuous emotional relationship with the girl. Meanwhile, the young detective sent by the New York police to assist in the investigation discovered that the mayor had already given orders to rule out several obvious suspects, including the most famous tycoon in New York. The shadows behind the scenes are deep and inscrutable. Rubenfeld's writing is skillful as he weaves a complex web of clues while elegantly and classically portraying the grand panorama of a glorious period in New York's history. He takes readers on a thrilling journey through history, offering a glimpse into the era when psychoanalytic theory first emerged. The New York Times, Time Magazine, and Associated Press paid special attention to it, and thirty major publishing houses worldwide launched it grandly.
