Ray Thorpe, a criminal defence lawyer, acts for Mahmud Farooqi, a pharmacist from Wolverhampton who stands accused of brutally murdering a young man in Bath.Farooqi is an enigma. He refuses to plea and his connection to the victim remains a mystery, but the evidence against him is overwhelming. He is found guilty and sentenced to life.But the case is re-opened when another young man is killed in identical circumstances. Kevin Marshall, a middle-aged occupational therapist, walks into the police station and confesses to both murders without revealing his motive.Thorpe appeals Farooqi's conviction but doubts his innocence.While both Farooqi and Marshall are out on bail, a third man is murdered.With the help of his researcher, Doug Walsh, Thorpe establishes a link between the three victims - they were all employees of Generation MM, a computer games design studio.And so is Kevin Marshall's son, Bobby, himself a victim of a violent attack.But why would Marshall want to kill any of them? And how does Farooqi fit into it?As Thorpe wrestles with this baffling case, his daughter Robyn travels to Australia with a group of friends.She is abducted on arrival.The past has finally caught up with Ray and his Chinese wife Lou who is a wanted woman in China.She is the only person who can save their daughter, but at what cost?As Thorpe uncovers the gruesome motive for the three murders, the killer pursues his last victim and another young man is left fighting for his life.
