Synopsis

Murder Mystery, crime thriller. Police procedural catching a proposed serial killer.

When a number of people are murdered in the north-east of England, it is assumed they are random killings and are not connected in any way. However, it is soon discovered that the victims all have one thing in common. Written in red ink on the back of their right hand, are the words ‘RIP,’ along with the dates of their death.

DCS Andrew Bainbridge, of Redcar and Cleveland Police, is charged with carrying out a clandestine investigation into the deaths so as not to alarm the public that a murderer is roaming around the north-east.

In the meantime, Inspector John William Vickers is transferred to Redcar & Cleveland Police. He is tasked with investigating a series of burglaries which have taken place throughout the town, along with a number of sexual assaults on young women. His callous, sometimes cavalier attitude towards the public soon brings him into conflict with both Bainbridge and Michael Rhodes, a local solicitor.

As Bainbridge begins to make progress in his investigations, he discovers the terrifying truth of the killer’s next intended victim. He enters a race against time to prevent the death and put an end to the mayhem.
