Two years ago, psychotic undertaker Larry 'Twister' Wadman disappeared after blasting two police detectives to death with an incendiary device and embarking on a murderous rampage across the Somerset Levels. For most, memories have dulled, but the sole survivor of the carnage, Detective Kate Hamblin, cannot forget. Then a prostitute’s body is found dumped in a coffin in Twister’s now derelict funeral parlour, dressed in a police uniform. Kate realises that her old enemy is back and out to get her.

Like Courtney, Katie believes she's living a fairytale life that was tailor-made just for her, starting with the picture-perfect dentist she married. However, the handsome, successful doctor is nothing more than a calculated, clever fraud that said "I do" one too many times.

In the days that followed, riotous mobs overtook New Orleans.
