Publisher's Synopsis
After a burglary at the mortuary, the body of 30-year-old Kirsty Gallagher goes missing—but the body that searchers find belongs to someone else
The Harrowfield mortuary has been robbed, and Kirsty Gallagher's body disappears. Nearby, uniformed police are searching the canal along with a small diving squad, following the discovery of some clothes by the bank side. The body of a naked man is hoisted from the murky depths. His ankles are tied by a piece of rope connected to concrete. Kirsty's decomposing corpse is eventually found and an arrest is made which leads to a network of men whom D.I. Dylan can only describe as reprobates.
