Things are running smoothly at Torreston Police Station, especially for DCI Harriet Love, who is beginning to enjoy the company of DI Ed Harrington. But their relationship goes on hold when a woman is found dead in the park and a second murder is deemed to be connected. The Team set about finding the link between the two dead women and turn their investigation to the local comprehensive school, where one was a student and the other a teacher. When a third body is found, no link can be discovered to the first murders and Harry, Ed and DS Charlie Marlow once again find themselves involved in a hunt for a killer.
