Zwischen diesen drei Menschen lässt sich keine nachweisbare Verbindung herstellen. Eine harte Nuss für Inspector Lynley und und Sergeant Havers - zumal die Zusammenarbeit der beiden an einem seidenen Faden hängt. Havers, die wegen einer Befehlsmissachtung vorübergehend suspendiert und später degradiert wurde, zweifelt an der Loyalität Lynleys und stürzt in eine schwere berufliche und menschliche Krise.

Lynley und Havers gehen verschiedenen Spuren nach, können aber nicht umhin festzustellen, dass all ihre Theorien gravierende Lücken aufweisen.
