      The fast-paced and hard-hitting sequel to ANGEL OF DEATH. Thirty years of fear. Thirty years of closed minds. It is all about to change. A Sheffield prostitute has disappeared. With no family to fight for her, she's just the latest in a long line of missing girls stretching back three decades. Nobody cares about their names. Nobody remembers their faces. They are the unloved, the damaged, the forgotten, the damned... Amongst the women working South Yorkshire's streets, rumours of a serial killer have long circulated. But the police's top brass don't want to know about it. Talk of serial killers panics the public and embarrasses the department... But two very different detectives, each driven by their own dangerous obsessions, are being drawn into a murky world of perversion, murder and corruption that stretches from the streets to the corridors of power.

      Otec patnáctileté Lily Knightové propadl alkoholu a chorobné žárlivosti. Při jedné z vyhrocených hádek ho Lilyina matka Hazel nešťastnou náhodou zabije. Soud ji sice vzhledem k okolnostem osvobodí, ale pro okolí nadále zůstává matkou vražedkyní. Proto s radostí uvítá zprávu, že zdědila venkovský domek uprostřed lesů. Po náročné rekonstrukci se do něj Hazel s Lily přestěhují s nadějí na nový život. K domku se však váže děsivá historie. Před více než třemi sty lety jej totiž obývala Mary Longová, kterou skupina vesničanů obvinila z čarodějnictví a nechala upálit u staré jeřabiny. Ta dodnes stojí nedaleko domku a je opředena řadou pověr. Lily se seznamuje s okolím i svéráznými obyvateli vesnice. K těm patří jak členové místního covenu novodobých, zdánlivě neškodných čarodějů, tak potomci těch, kteří Mary dohnali na hranici. Byla Mary opravdu čarodějnice? Nebo šlo jen o její pozemky? A jak do jejího příběhu zapadají Hazel a Lily?
