Mentre una violenta tempesta si abbatte sulla costa scozzese, la casa di Gordon Smith precipita nel Mare del Nord. Ed è così che il promontorio fatiscente rivela ciò che l'uomo ha sepolto per anni nel suo giardino: resti umani. Con la tempesta ancora in corso, è troppo pericoloso recuperare i corpi e le onde stanno divorando tutte le prove. Il che significa che nessuno sa quante persone Smith abbia ucciso e quante altre ne ucciderà se non verrà trovato e fermato al più presto.

La storia personale di Logan Mcrae non è certo specchiata, ma ora che ha ricevuto una promozione deve rigare dritto e tenere d’occhio, a sua volta, i suoi colleghi. Quando uno degli agenti viene trovato morto sul sedile di guida di un'auto distrutta, è uno shock per tutto il dipartimento di polizia. L'ispettore Bell, infatti, era deceduto due anni prima. O, almeno, così credevano. Immediatamente viene aperto un caso e Logan comincia a indagare nel passato del collega. Dove è stato per tutto quel tempo? Perché è scomparso?

It's DS Logan McRae's first day back on the job after a year off on the sick, and it couldn't get much worse. Three-year-old David Reid's body is discovered in a ditch: strangled, mutilated and a long time dead. And he's only the first. There's a serial killer stalking the Granite City, and the local media are baying for blood. Soon the dead are piling up in the morgue almost as fast as the snow on the streets, and Logan knows time is running out. More children are going missing. More are going to die.

Detective Chief Inspector Roberta Steel got caught fitting up Jack Wallace - that's why they demoted her and quashed his sentence. Now he's back on the streets, and women are being attacked again. Wallace has to be responsible, but if Detective Sergeant Steel goes anywhere near him, his lawyers will get her thrown off the force for good. The Powers That Be won't listen to her, not after what happened last time. According to them, she's got more than enough ongoing cases to keep her busy.
