    A body buried in the dunes. 
    A killer with a deadly pattern. 
    Can DCI Walker catch them before the cycle starts again? 
    When a young woman’s body is discovered in the windswept sand dunes of Lytham St Annes, Detective Walker is assigned to the cold case. The victim’s connection to a former Chief Constable puts the investigation under intense scrutiny from Walker’s current boss, the formidable Chief Constable Sarah Harriet. 
    It's not a holiday if you don't come home... 
    But when two more bodies are unearthed nearby, it’s clear they’re hunting a serial killer—one who’s ready to strike again. With few leads and mounting pressure, Walker takes a bold gamble: sending his partner, DC Briggs, undercover as bait to draw the killer out.
