When Lynley's antagonistic superior realizes that the department will be accused of racism for failing to solve the earlier crimes, his method of damage control infuriates Lynley and impedes work on the case.One of Lynley's best investigators, who is black, is diverted to handling press conferences and replaced by a profiler Lynley doesn't want. And, worst of all, a reporter is embedded with the team and his feature about Lynley almost draws a map to the house Lynley shares with his pregnant wife.

Is the killer changing his habits in an effort to stump the police, or has someone else stepped beyond the bounds of justice and humanity?
