It is 1932 and John Madden, former Scotland Yard Inspector, is now a farmer in the peaceful Surrey countryside. Peaceful, that is, until he discovers the mutilated body of a small girl, Alice Bridger, hidden in a wood. Uneasy at the direction of police enquiries and convinced the killer has struck before, he quietly begins his own investigations.
When a second body is found Madden's instinct is proved right - there is a multiple killer at large, and he has been covering his tracks for a number of years.
The investigation leads to Germany - where the Nazis are on the brink of power. And the mutilated bodies the killer has left in his wake are just a shocking foretaste of the horrors to come . . .
