Some secrets are better left undiscovered.

Two years after the shocking events of the Nicola Watson case, Brian McDone's life is finally back on track. He's working in the lower ranks of the police department, but his personal life and mental stability are stronger and more important to him than ever.

That is until news breaks of a series of brutal, ritualistic murders in the idyllic Lancashire countryside. Seven bodies are found, decapitated, bones stripped of flesh, heads piled on top of one another. The police are clueless. Brian is intrigued. Too intrigued.

As Brian grows obsessed with the case, he finds himself drawn out of his peaceful life and into the dangerous depths of the investigation. In a race against time, Brian must put all he cares about on the line, as he faces a ruthless, cunning and methodical serial killer who isn't afraid to make things personal.
