On the day she returns to active duty with the Serial Crimes Unit, Detective Inspector Anjelica Henley is called to a crime scene. Dismembered body parts from two victims have been found by the river. The modus operandi bears a striking resemblance to Peter Olivier, the notorious Jigsaw Killer, who has spent the past two years behind bars. When he learns that someone is co-opting his grisly signature - the arrangement of victims’ limbs in puzzle-piece shapes - he decides to take matters into his own hands.

When Detective Anjelica Henley is called to investigate the murder of a popular preacher in his own church, she discovers a second victim, tortured and tied to a bed in an upstairs room. He is alive, but barely, and his body shows signs of a dark religious ritual. With a revolving list of suspects and the media spotlight firmly on her, Henley is left with more questions than answers as she attempts to untangle both crimes. But when another body appears, the case takes on a new urgency. Unless she can apprehend the killer, the next victim may just be Henley herself.

After twenty-five years behind bars, Andrew Kenan has just been exonerated. Newly discovered DNA evidence proves that he was not the cold-blooded serial killer the world thought he was, the one who sewed his victims' eyes shut before burying them alive. Before Kenan can taste freedom, however, he is found dead in his prison cell. And Inspector Anjelica Henley, who worked the original investigation, is left in shock.

Per l'ispettrice Anjelica Henley, della squadra Crimini Seriali, è il primo vero caso dopo molti mesi; un'indagine, all'apparenza, cucita su misura per lei. In una zona di Londra che conosce come le sue tasche, sulle rive melmose del Tamigi appestate da liquami stagnanti e olio motore, sono stati rinvenuti dei resti umani, disseminati lungo gli argini come pezzi di un puzzle da ricomporre.

Welch wunderbares Puzzle ist der menschliche Körper, einzigartig in seiner Präzision und seiner aufeinander abgestimmten Perfektion! Ich liebe Puzzles über alles. Doch ein perfektes Puzzle ist nur eines, das in seine Einzelteile zerlegt ist. Nur so kann man wahre Schönheit erkennen - indem man jedes für sich betrachtet. Hände, Füße, Beine, Arme, Köpfe. Welche Freude! Und wahre Freude muss man teilen, nicht wahr? In der ganzen Stadt.

Als DI Anjelica Henley zu einem neuen Tatort gerufen wird, schwant ihr nichts Gutes: In einer kleinen Londoner Kirche wurde ein Pastor brutal ermordet. Während Henleys Team den Tatort genauer untersucht, entdecken sie in einem Nebenraum einen angeketteten, halbtoten jungen Mann. Henleys Bauchgefühl sagt ihr, dass der junge Mann nicht vom Mörder eingesperrt worden ist. Aber wer war es dann? Und warum wurde der Pastor ermordet? Henley sucht fieberhaft nach Antworten, aber stattdessen stößt sie nur auf immer mehr Leichen, die auf die gleiche Art zu Tode gequält wurden wie der junge Mann aus der Kirche.
