When her niece befriends Ruth Lennox's son, Ted, she finds herself in the difficult position of confidant to both Ted, and DCI Karlsson.

Soon it's clear that Ruth was leading a secret life. Her family close ranks.
And Karlsson needs Frida's help more than ever before . . .

But Frieda is distracted. Having survived an attack on her life, she's struggling to stay focused when a patient's chance remark rings alarm bells.

Suddenly Frieda finds herself chasing the path of a suspected serial killer.

Or is it merely a symptom of her own increasingly fragile mind? . . .
