    So the murderer has killed himself; that just saves the time and cost of a trial.

She has been brutally murdered, her internal organs removed and placed around her in six preserving jars.

On top of this he has to investigate a series of unusual, violent suicides and a cat-burglar who targets the homes of the recently dead. But as another prominent Edinburgh businessman is killed, he begins to suspect that there may be a connection between the murders, the suicides and the ritual killing of the girl found in the basement.

Could there really be something evil stalking the city he has sworn to protect? And if so, how on earth can he hope to stop it?
