But as the game gathers pace a series of extraordinary murders takes place. To Detective Frank Moke, they bear all the hallmarks of a famous unsolved case almost twenty years before.

With his rookie assistant, Morgan Luttrell, Moke descends into a world of coincidence and manipulation where the killer is always a step ahead. And the truth is closer than anyone knows...
