When Dr James Dalcott is shot dead in his cottage it looks very much like an execution. And as DI Wesley Peterson begins piecing together the victim's life, he finds that the well-liked country doctor had been harbouring strange and dramatic family secrets.
Meanwhile archaeologist Neil Watson has discovered a number of skeletons at nearby Tailors Court that bear marks of dissection and might be linked to tales of body-snatching by a rogue physician in the sixteenth century. But when Neil finds the bones of a child buried with a 1930s coin, the investigation takes a sinister turn.
Who were the children evacuated to Tailors Court during World War II? And where are they now? When a link is established between the wartime evacuees and Dr Dalcott's death, Wesley is faced with his most challenging case yet...

Singmass Close has a sinister past. Reputedly haunted by ghosts of children, in the '50s it was the hunting ground of the Doll Strangler, a ruthless killer who was never brought to justice. When the strangled body of teenager Natalie Parkes is found in the same close, a mutilated doll lying by her side, DI Joe Plantagenet wonders whether a copycat killer is at work.
With the recent disappearance of a local model and an escaped convict at large, this new, horrific murder stretches Joe's team to its limit. But as the bodies start mounting up and Joe's questioning brings him closer to the real strangler, he comes to suspect a shockingly creepy connection between all three cases..
