The clock is ticking.

Detective Constable Angus MacVicar has just landed his dream job - transferred out of uniform and assigned to Oldcastle s biggest ongoing murder investigation: Operation Telegram, hunting the "Fortnight Killer.

Every two weeks another couple is targeted. One victim is left at the scene, their corpse used as a twisted message board. The second body is never seen again.

This should be the perfect chance for Angus to prove himself, but instead of working on the investigation s front line, he s lumbered with the forensic psychologist from hell. A jetlagged, sarcastic, know-it-all American, on loan from the FBI, who seems determined to alienate everyone while dragging Angus into a shadowy world of conspiracies, lies, and violence.

It s been twelve days since the Fortnight Killer last struck, and the investigation s running out of time. The darkness is growing, and if Angus isn t careful, it ll swallow him whole.
