Dangling from a hook in a meat packing plant isn't how Detective Sergeant Washington Poe wants to spend his weekend. He's been punched and kicked and threatened, and when a contract killer arrives, it seems things are about to go from bad to worse. He goes by the name of the Pale Man, and he and his straight-edged razor have been feared all over London for 20 years. But Poe knows two things the Pale Man doesn't. Although it might seem like a hopeless situation, Poe has planned to be here all along.

Investigating how a severed hand ends up on the third green of a Cumbrian golf course is not how Detective Inspector Avison Fluke has planned to spend his Saturday. So when a secret protection unit from London swoops in quoting national security, he's secretly pleased. But trouble is never far away. A young woman arrives at his lakeside cabin with a cryptic message: a code known to only a handful of people, and it forces Fluke back into the investigation he's only just been barred from.

Detective Inspector Avison Fluke is a man on the edge. He has committed a crime to get back to work, concealed a debilitating illness and is about to be made homeless. Just as he thinks things can't get any worse, the body of a young woman is found buried on a Cumbrian building site. Shot once in the back of the head, it is a cold, calculated execution. When the postmortem reveals she has gone to significant expense in disguising her appearance, Fluke knows this is no ordinary murder.

El sargento detective Washington Poe puede contar a sus amigos con los dedos de una mano, y una de ellos es Estelle Doyle, la mordaz patóloga forense a la que acude cada vez que tiene preguntas sobre algo húmedo y orgánico. Cuando el padre de Estelle aparece muerto en su domicilio con dos tiros en la cabeza, Poe no dudará en acudir en su ayuda. Estelle tiene residuos de pólvora en las manos y sus huellas son las únicas que aparecen entrando a la casa. Mientras tanto, un envenenador al que la prensa ha apodado "el Botánico" envía poemas y flores prensadas a personas famosas.

Un asesino en serie está quemando vivas a sus víctimas. No hay ningún tipo de pistas en las escenas del crimen y la policía ha perdido todas las esperanzas. Cuando su nombre es hallado en los restos carbonizados de la tercera víctima, Washington Poe, un detective suspendido de empleo y caído en desgracia es llamado para que se haga cargo de la investigación, un caso del que no quiere formar parte. De mala gana acepta como su nueva compañera a Tily Bradshaw, una brillante pero poco social analista civil.

DS Washington Poe ist irritiert, als er wegen eines Mordes zu einem Hinterhof-Bordell in Carlisle gerufen wird: Normalerweise jagt er Serienmörder–hier scheint ein Streit mit einem Zuhälter eskaliert zu sein. Seltsam ist, dass eine kleine Keramikfigur in Gestall einer Ratte fehlt und jemand aus dem Ermittlerteam der Dieb sein muss. Denn auf einem Foto der Spurensicherung ist die Figur eindeutig zu erkennen.

Überall in Cumbria hinterlässt ein Serienkiller »Weihnachtsgeschenke« für die Polizei: abgetrennte Finger und dazu die Nachricht »#BSC6«. DS Washington Poe und die Analystin Tilly Bradshaw stehen vor einem Fall, der einfach keinen Sinn ergibt. Ihr einziger Verdächtiger leugnet hartnäckig, was sie zweifelsfrei beweisen können–gibt dafür aber Dinge zu, von denen die Polizei noch gar nichts wusste. Und warum haben die Opfer, die scheinbar nicht das Geringste miteinander zu tun hatten, alle vor drei Jahren dieselben zwei Wochen Urlaub genommen?

Whilst on a murder-mystery evening in deepest darkest Northumberland, Poe manages to annoy everyone whilst simultaneously solving a mystery - what happened to a five-carat red diamond called the Red Moon of Coonowrin.

Si crees que sabes lo que va a pasar a continuación es porque estás exactamente donde él quiere que estés... Es Navidad y un asesino en serie deja a la vista partes del cuerpo de su última víctima por todo Cumbria. Un extraño mensaje aparece en cada escena del crimen: # BSC6. Washington Poe y Tilly Bradshaw, de la Agencia Nacional contra el Crimen, se enfrentan a un caso que no tiene sentido. ¿Por qué algunas víctimas fueron anestesiadas, mientras que otras murieron en una agonía espantosa?
