Paula Ingall murders her husband in the ‘Sleepy Hollow’ Surrey village of Twyford. She has what she believes is a cast-iron alibi, but subsequently receives a phone call from someone known to her, who witnessed the murder.
Subsequent deaths – by other than natural causes – give cause for Inspector Jack Randall to suspect that a repeat killer is at work.
Jack contacts the Serious Crimes Squad at Scotland Yard, and DI Ben Drury and his team combine forces with Guildford CID to work the case.
Simultaneously, In London, a serial rapist is on the rampage. His escalating use of violence leaves Ben Drury in no doubt that it will only be a matter of time before he crosses the line and takes life.
With two separate murderers who are developing a deranged bloodlust, and pressure from a newly appointed Detective Chief Superintendent, Ben is in his element, adrenalin-fuelled and driven, never happier than when he is up against the clock and in a frantic race to save life.
