NOW THEY MUST TRY TO FIND A KILLER.

Colm Healy was one of the Met's best detectives - until the unsolved murders of a mother and her twin daughters consumed his career, his family and his life. Agreeing to work with Healy, Raker soon learns the hard way how this puzzle breeds obsession.

IT WILL COST THEM EVERYTHING.

Meanwhile, the killer watches, waits, and prepares to bury the truth forever. Because this was never just a murder. It was something far worse . . .
