After a dramatic change in character, a rather usual middle-aged man begins carrying out a series of rather unusual murders. Meanwhile Brad Shape, a crime beat reporter for the Manchester Daily News, is looking for the big scoop to revive his flagging career - and his crumbling marriage. But when he finds one of England's most notorious serial killers, it will be Brad's biggest break... in more ways than one. Note: this taut, edge-of-your-seat thriller contains graphic violence, and is not for the faint of heart. You've been warned.
