Love Story, with Murders

📖 The Scoop

A human leg is discovered in a woman's freezer, bagged up like a joint of pork. The search begins for the rest of the corpse, but the hunt soon turns out to be darker and stranger than anything the police have encountered before, with body parts turning up in kitchens, garages and potting sheds. And while the police are still literally putting the pieces together, concluding that they all belong to a teenage girl killed some ten years earlier, parts of another body suddenly start appearing, but this time discarded carelessly around the countryside clearly very shortly after the victim - a man - was killed. Who were the two victims, and what connection could they have shared that would result in these bizarre discoveries? Investigating the double crime draws DC Fiona Griffiths into a web of obsession, money, deceit - and acute personal danger. Which is exactly where she likes to be: in the middle of a gruesome puzzle with a pitch-black secret at its heart.
