Local journalist Philip Dryden is called to an incident at the nearby River Lark. The police think they’re just pulling out a dumped car from the icy depths - big deal.

Until they open the car boot.

A frozen and barely recognisable corpse, twisted to fit in the compact space.

But it’s only the beginning.

The next day, high on the roof of Ely Cathedral, a second body is found on a stone gargoyle. The coroner says it’s death by misadventure, but Dryden knows better.

A killer is stalking the Fens.
