  • "The Derbyshire Police are receiving anonymous phone calls, taunting them, and describing a killing that is to take place. The caller has given the name 'flesh eater'. Detective Diane Fry is certain she's dealing with a killer ... and fears it may be too late to save the next intended victim. Meanwhile DC Ben Cooper is looking into their first case of body snatching. As he investigates the case he finds himself in the world of those whose lives revolve around the dead and their disposal, including a professor whose speciality is the study of death."

  • ""This killing will be a model of perfection. An accomplishment to be proud of. And it could be tonight or maybe next week. But it will be soon. I promise." The anonymous phone calls indicate a disturbed mind with an unnatural passion for death. Cooper and Fry are hoping against hope that the caller is just a harmless crank having some sick fun. But the clues woven through his disturbing messages point to the possibility of an all-too-real crime ... especially when a woman vanishes from an office parking garage. But it's the mystery surrounding an unidentified female corpse left exposed in the woods for over a year that really has the detectives worried. Whoever she might have been, the dead woman is linked to the mystery caller, whose description of his twisted death rituals matches the bizarre manner in which the body was found. And the mystery only deepens when Cooper obtains a positive I.D. and learns that the dead woman was never reported missing and that she definitely wasn't murdered. As the killer draws them closer into his confidence, Ben and Diane learn everything about his deadly obsessions except what matters most: his identity and the identity of his next victim. ...
