When a serial killer targets victims on the west coast of England, a detective must track him down while battling her own demons in this crime thriller.

Kevin Palmer is a regular sort of guy until his life suddenly shatters before his eyes. His wife, his business, and his reputation are all taken from him in one fell swoop. Trying to fight back only lands himself in prison. But he’s not done fighting yet.

In the confines of his cell, Kevin concocts elaborate fantasies to wreak vengeance on those who’ve wronged him. When he is sent to work in an abattoir, the final piece of the jigsaw falls into place with chilling consequences. Then a cruel twist of fate changes everything. 

Meanwhile, Det. Inspector Rosalind Kray of Blackpool, England, is just returning to work after a brutal attack. She is soon on the case of a sadistic serial killer.

When she cracks the macabre pattern of murders, Kray has Palmer squarely in her sights. But can she stop him before he takes revenge on his final victim?
