A Philosophical Investigation by Philip Kerr Book Summary

A terrifyingly prescient cult classic by the bestselling author of the Bernie Gunther series. 

“Chilling...absorbing...part techno-thriller, part futuristic detective story, part diary of a serial killer.”—The New York Times Book Review 

LONDON, 2013. Serial killings have reached epidemic proportions—even with the widespread government use of DNA detection, brain-imaging, and the “punitive coma.” Beautiful, whip-smart, and driven by demons of her own, Detective Isadora “Jake” Jacowicz must stop a murderer, code-named “Wittgenstein,” who has taken it upon himself to eliminate any man who has tested posi­tive for a tendency towards violent behavior—even if his victim has never committed a crime. He is a killer whose intellectual brilliance is matched only by his homicidal madness.

Hard-Boiled Cyberpunk Mystery Thriller. At it’s heart, A Philosophical Investigation is a terrific yarn about a police team trying to track down a serial killer. However, like all great science fiction, Kerr’s novel operates on an allegorical level as well, and explores themes along the lines of the possible implications of technology on our collective and individual psychology and morality. A Philosophical Investigation is definitely on my to re-read list. Not to be missed.

The clue is in the title. Kerr is one of the best but even Jesus fell. The book is at its best pedantic and undeserving of publication. Kerr, an excellent writer, turns unpublishable nonsense into what? There is no character who draws the reader into the story or the useless debate. Save your money. Buy any of Kerr's other books. Treat yourself to the Berlin Noir books. Be warned: spend your time and money elsewhere.

A Philosophical Investigation. A brilliant, philosophic, mind-probing book. Completely out of character with Kerr's later protagonist (detective series). I believe this book predates the latter, being first published in 1993. It was certainly prescient. The concept of punitive coma must surely be around the corner....wouldn't it be something if this dreadful concept came into usage in the year 2013!!
