Detective Chief Inspector Beth Fellows is thrown into the

biggest case of her career: the brutal murder of Rose Danes. She quickly realizes Rose's murder is linked to a cold case she investigated two years previously. The victim, fourteen-year old Celine Wilson, survived but now languishes in a coma.

Both girls were branded with the image of a raven. The only lead is a vague description and a name, Simon. Beth's convinced he's the killer. Especially when she receives a mobile phone containing one sole contact, Simon - and a warning to tell no one.

Then a key witness is kidnapped and Beth finds herself in a race against time to stop the killer before he can kill again. She's breaking all the rules to play his game. But will it be enough?
