The second title in the gripping Detective Inspector McLean crime series, set in Edinburgh

Every year for ten years, a young woman's body was found in Edinburgh at Christmas time- naked, throat slit, body washed clean.

The final victim, Kirsty Summers, was Detective Constable Tony McLean's fiancee. But the Christmas Killer made a mistake and McLean put an end to the brutal killing spree.

Twelve years later, and a fellow prisoner has murdered the Christmas Killer. But with the festive season comes a body; naked, washed, her throat cut.

Is this a copycat killer?
Was the wrong man behind bars all this time?
Or is there a more sinister explanation?

McLean must revisit his most disturbing case and discover what he missed before the killer strikes again . . .
