2000s: A battered suitcase washes up in the Thames. Nothing can prepare you for what she would find inside…
When a battered suitcase containing the dismembered body of a young man washes up on the shore of the river Thames, Detective Erika Foster is shocked. She’s worked on some terrifying cases but never seen anything like this before.
As Erika and her team set to work, she makes the link with another victim – the body of a young woman dumped in an identical suitcase two weeks ago.
Erika quickly realises she’s on the trail of a serial killer who’s already made their next move. Yet just as Erika starts to make headway with the investigation, she is the victim of a brutal attack.
But nothing will stop Erika. As the body count rises, the twin daughters of her colleague Commander Marsh are abducted, and the stakes are higher than ever before. Can Erika save the lives of two innocent children before it’s too late? She’s running out of time and about to make a disturbing discovery…there’s more than one killer.
Mutilated bodies are turning up in the busy streets of London. A deranged serial killer is on the loose. Any big city is going to have secrets but this one is making them float on the river, wrapped up in suitcases. There’s blood on the streets and its seeping into the cracks.
This is a city and gangs involved with drug trafficking too. It’s a cold harsh world out there and this is the darkest portrayal of it seen for a while.
Underbelly of a city? This is the groin, the underbelly and the armpit.
