from the cover:

"The tragic death of a railway magnate in a sleazy brothel has shocked high society. Meanwhile, private investigator William Monk acquires a mysterious new client who asks him to ascertain beyond the shadow of a doubt whether or not her fiance, a railway-firm executive, has become enmeshed in fraudulent practices. And so Monk embarks upon a journey that will revive memories stripped from his consciousness by amnesia - as a past almost impossible to bear returns, eerily paralleling a fresh tragedy that has already begun its inexorable unfolding."

I'm so glad we're finally learning about Monk's past! I've been intrigued all this time.

Sorry for the vague release location! I'm having trouble with the release notes. I left this by the Supercuts on N Carrollton in Midcity.
