A dead girl lies on a bloody soaked mattress, her limbs spread in a parody of ecstasy. The scene matches a series of murders which ended when irrefutable forensic evidence secured the conviction of one Derek Tyler. But Tyler’s been locked up in a metal institution for two years, barely speaking a word except to say that “the Voice” told him to do it. Top criminal psycholgist Dr Tony Hill is prepared to think the unthinkable – this is not a copycat murder but something much stranger.
