  • "Atmospheric and brooding, this latest tale of Second City sees Commander John Coffin confronting his past as he struggles to solve a brutal murder. A parcel containing the dismembered limbs of an unknown woman is found on the doorstep of a house, now a battered women's refuge, where Coffin used to live. The initials J.C. and a cryptic message in the parcel suggest a personal link, which is emphasised when Coffin's photograph is found in a handbag near the scene. As Coffin and his team begin the gruelling hunt for the missing head and torso of the dead woman, it rapidly becomes clear that this case, as well as resurrecting ghosts from his past, presents a threat to Coffin's own life."@en
