When Mackenna and Cade spend a week at his isolated cabin in the Maryland woods, passion flares to explosive levels between the unlikely couple.

The victims are Tina Brackenbury, the foster mother of Grace Winter, a ten-year- old who escapes the killer because she is staying her friend Chloe Hebblewhite's house at the time, and Tina's infant daughter. Enquiries by the police and social services reveal that some four years previously Grace was the sole survivor of the horrific massacre of her mother, grandparents and sister at Brocklesby Farm in North Lincolnshire, a crime for which her uncle Tristram Arkwright is currently serving a whole-life tariff. Why did Amy Winter, Grace's adoptive mother, send her to live with a foster parent? Is it a coincidence that both of Grace's families have now been brutally killed? And is it possible that Grace's uncle, a notorious con-man, has found a way to contact her from his maximum security cell? DI Yates and his team face a series of apparently impenetrable conundrums.
