Detectives call Dr Harrison Lane to the dark depths of Fenton Woods, where he finds seven-year-old Darren Phillips surrounded by candles and a makeshift cross. A prayer is scrawled on his chest. Papers crammed in his mouth – pages of scripture written in a child’s trembling hand. As head of the Ritualistic Behavioural Crime unit, Harrison reads what others can’t see. The killer kept Darren alive for days, teaching him, forcing him to write. This is a man who believes he’s saving children’s souls from the Devil. Then another boy vanishes.

A mutilated corpse dressed as a bride, a psychopathic killer hell-bent on furthering his macabre game and a woman detective who stands by her instincts. When a woman disappears from a motorway service station, DI Charlie Lambert struggles to make any headway finding her. Missing person specialist DI Tanya Miller is called in to take over the investigation, but when it becomes a murder inquiry, she too is threatened with replacement. With a suspected serial killer on the loose, DI Miller must quickly muster her ad hoc team into action.

A child’s body surrounded by candles in misty woodland, scripture stuffed in his mouth. A jockey pinned down by horseshoes on desolate fenland, linked to a secret society called The Horsemen. A university student in black robes drifting on a river, dead, Satanic symbols carved into their flesh. As head of the Ritualistic Behavioural Crime unit, Harrison specialises in murders others can't solve. Secret societies. Occult practices. Religious obsession turned deadly.
