Bei diesem zweiten Teil der Fank Elder Serie möchte man am liebsten gar nicht mehr auf Pause drücken. Nachdem die Verhaftung eines gesuchten Gangsterbosses ganz anders verläuft als geplant und am Ende zwei Menschen getötet werden, sucht Detective Sergeant Maddy Birch Hilfe bei ihrem pensionierten Kollegen Frank Elder. Im Zuge der Ermittlungen muss er sich der Vergangenheit stellen, die einen direkten Bezug zur Gegenwart zu haben scheint. Wieder steht das Leben seiner Tochter und diesmal auch sein eigenes auf dem Spiel.

Der erste Teil der Frank Elder Serie bildet einen grandiosen Auftakt und macht Lust auf mehr. Vor fünfzehn Jahren verschwand in Nottingham eine junge Frau, bis heute fehlt jede Spur von ihr. Der verurteilte Mörder und Sexualstraftäter Shane Donald wird aus dem Gefängnis entlassen. Dem pensionierten Detective Frank Elder geht er ungelöste Fall noch immer nicht aus dem Kopf und er nimmt die Ermittlungen wieder auf. Daraufhin wird wieder eine junge Frau ermordet und der Detective erhält mysteriöse Postkarten.

Der dritte und letzte Teil der Frank Elder Serie bietet ein spannendes Finale und ist nichts für schwache Nerven. Claire Meecham, eine Bekannte des pensionierten Detectives Frank Elder, ist spurlos verschwunden. Als ihr Bungalow durchsucht wird, finden die Ermittler Hinweise auf spezielle sexuelle Vorlieben und männliche Internetbekanntschaften. Bevor die Ermittlungen weitergehen können, erhält Elder die Nachricht, das Claire tot aufgefunden wurde. Die Art wie die Leiche drapiert wurde, erinnert ihn stark an ein früheres Verbrechen.
