I et sikret boksrum i kælderen hos en sølvhandler finder man et lig, der er blevet maltrakteret til ukendelighed. Politiet er overbevist om, at den dræbte må være en tidligere dømt indbrudstyv, han er nemlig blevet fanget af forretningens overvågningskameraer. Men ikke alle tror på den teori, og slet ikke Decima Mullins, der henvender sig til Cormoran Strike for at bede ham om at efterforske den dødes identitet. Hun er overbevist om, at offeret i boksrummet må være hendes kæreste, der er sporløst forsvundet. Alt passer på ham, og han ville aldrig forlade hende og deres nyfødte søn.

Im Tresorraum eines Silberhändlers wird eine verstümmelte Leiche gefunden. Die Polizei geht davon aus, dass es sich um einen verurteilten Einbrecher handelt. Doch Decima Mullins, die Privatdetektiv Comoran Strike um Hilfe bittet, ist überzeugt davon, dass es sich bei der Leiche um ihren Freund handelt, der unter mysteriösen Umständen verschwand. Je tiefer Strike und seine Geschäftspartnerin Robin Ellacott in den Fall eintauchen, desto undurchsichtiger wird er.

L’ormai famosa agenzia Strike ed Ellacott ha risolto molti casi inestricabili. Quello che rimane non risolto è il rapporto trai due soci, segnato da un’amicizia profonda e inquieta, tra slanci imprevedibili e sotterranee gelosie. Quando l’anziano Sir Colin Edensor chiede il loro aiuto per tirar fuori il figlio Will da una setta che lo ha plagiato, i due accettano senza esitare. In nome della lotta per un mondo migliore, la Universal Humanitarian Church allontana i suoi membri dai loro affetti e li induce a elargire enormi donazioni, diventando sempre più potente.
