In a semi-abandoned industrial area on the outskirts of London, the bodies of five mutilated and tortured women are discovered. The investigation is immediately launched and handed over to the young inspector Jack Caffery. He instantly comprehends that the crimes are the work of a maniac: the victims have been subjected to amateur surgical procedures for breast reduction, and they have been combed and made up to resemble dolls. However, the cause of death is not the horrific injuries, but rather a lethal injection; furthermore, the killer has inserted a live bird into the victims' chests and sewn it next to their hearts, a symbol and signature of his macabre work.
The investigation is a complex and challenging one, as the killer has left no obvious clues or evidence. Caffery and his team must delve deep into the lives and backgrounds of the victims, searching for any connections or commonalities that might provide a lead. As they uncover more about the victims, a disturbing pattern begins to emerge - all of the women were involved in the sex industry in some way, whether as escorts, strippers, or sex workers.
Caffery suspects that the killer may have a personal vendetta against these women, perhaps driven by a twisted sense of morality or a desire to "purify" them. The team also discovers that the killer has a meticulous and organized approach, carefully planning each murder and leaving no trace of himself behind. This leads them to believe that the killer may have experience in the medical field, possibly as a surgeon or nurse.
As the investigation progresses, the pressure mounts on Caffery and his team to find the killer before he strikes again. They must navigate a complex web of leads and suspects, all while dealing with the horrific nature of the crimes and the emotional toll it takes on them. The killer, however, remains one step ahead, taunting the police with cryptic clues and making it clear that he has no intention of stopping.
Ultimately, the case comes down to a race against time, with Caffery and his team desperately trying to uncover the killer's identity and stop him before he can claim another victim. The tension builds to a thrilling conclusion, leaving the reader both horrified and captivated by the twisted mind of the killer and the determination of the investigators to bring him to justice.
