Description:

A Conservative MP is found strangled and his throat cut, but there's an unexpected twist. He's also been mutilated in a particularly nasty way. And Superintendent Gus Hathaway, head of the Area Major Incident Team, has now got a very hot case on his hands. Was there any significance in this destructive act or was it base brutality? Gus needs answers fast for within days a Labour MP gets the same treatment. George Barnabas, Head of Pathology at the 'Old East' Hospital, is now living with Gus and cannot bear to be left out of the investigations. She realizes that the murders are taking the same pattern as those of Jack the Ripper and, if her predictions are accurate, the serial killer will strike five times - and Gus's chances of catching him (or her) are rapidly running out ... While Gus and his team at Ratcliffe Street Police Station are looking into the life histories of the dead men, George is getting impatient and decides to take matters into her own hands. Her methods are somewhat unorthodox and her discoveries bizarre, making it all the more difficult to piece together the elusive connection between the killer and his ever-increasing number of victims.
