Although this is 'stand-alone' detective novel, it brings the events of the late 1990's to a conclusion.
The hunt is on for what appears to be a ‘copy-cat’ killer of paedophiles. Marcus Hartstein; lover, adventurer, executioner, was reported dead in 2006 but more bodies have been appearing – all with the same M.O as Hartstein’s.
DCI Christine Ling was on the original case, hunting him down in Nothing is Sacrosanct. Now she and her husband, Clive Moran, a police profiler, have been brought out of retirement to solve these new murders, but the clues are few, and the suspects are untouchable.
