    In un'area industriale semi abbandonata della periferia londinese vengono scoperti i cadaveri di cinque donne mutilate e seviziate. Scattano immediatamente le indagini che vengono affidate al giovane ispettore Jack Caffery. Egli comprende all'istante che i delitti sono opera di un maniaco:le vittime sono state infatti sottoposte a procedure chirurgiche amatoriali per la riduzione del seno e sono state pettinate e truccate in modo da ricordare delle bambole. La morte tuttavia non è stata causata dalle orrende ferite, bensì da un'iniezione letale; inoltre il killer ha inserito nel petto delle vittime e cucito accanto al cuore un uccellino vivo, simbolo e firma del suo macabro operato.
