Four years earlier four young women were also strangled to death in their own homes the same deep wound to the thigh the same weird symbol scrawled on the wall. The work of the killer they call the Bishop. Is he back to kill again? Jack and his team are in a race against time to pull the pieces together and uncover the truth before more young women die.
