The body of a young girl is found hanged in woods near the Scottish town of Aberdeen. Closer examination leads to the conclusion that death occurred prior to the hanging raising the possibility of murder. When a second body, the son of a wealthy businessman is discovered, police begin to fear that both deaths may be related.

This is a standard police procedural with the lead detective DI Eve Hunter returning to full time duty after a terrifying previous investigation.
