Christmas time, a time for giving, a time for killing.
The snow is falling but soon it will be stained red, someone is out to settle old scores, someone, who cares little for the lives of others.
Despite the festive season Ann Stevenson isn't happy. Her precious son Simon has done the unthinkable and moved out of the family home.
So, when she finds the man on her doorstep she is in no mood for cold canvassers, although DCI Bannister isn't selling anything, he's there to break bad news, news that will leave Ann Stevenson in mind-twisting hysterics as her world comes crashing down.
Someone has murdered her golden boy and his girlfriend has vanished.
As the case unfolds and the killer continues to ply his trade, the threads will pull DS Lasser into a past so twisted that he fears he will never find a way back to reality. As the church bells chime and the town in buried under a blanket of white, he must trust his instincts to get to the truth before it is too late. Before anyone else gets caught up in the tangled web of hatred and violence. But sometimes even gut feelings can't be relied upon to save those closest to you.
