It is 1932 and John Madden, former Scotland Yard Inspector, is now a farmer in the peaceful Surrey countryside. Peaceful, that is, until he discovers the mutilated body of a small girl, Alice Bridger, hidden in a wood.
Uneasy at the direction of police enquiries and convinced the killer has struck before, he quietly begins his own investigation. When a second body is found, Madden's instinct is proved right – there is a multiple killer at large, and he has been covering his tracks for a number of years.
The investigation leads Madden to Germany in the autumn of 1932. To a country where the Nazis are on the brink of power . . .
