    Cuando una serie de cadáveres empiezan a aparecer a orillas del río Támesis, la inspectora Anjelica Henley teme que pueda ser obra de Peter Olivier, el famoso asesino del rompecabezas. Pero eso es imposible; fue ella misma quien le dio caza y logró meterlo entre rejas.

    Aunque Henley esperaba no tener que enfrentarse de nuevo a él, sabe que solo puede recurrir a Olivier para dar con su imitador. Y cuando Olivier sea conocedor de los nuevos asesinatos, ayudar a Henley será lo último que tenga en mente…

    Nadie estará a salvo, y mucho menos después de Olivier haya logrado fugarse de la cárcel. Cualquiera puede ser su siguiente víctima. Solo es cuestión de tiempo.
