TWO DEAD BODIES. Detective Inspector Jack Dawes is called in to investigate the death of a woman found with her throat slit on a snowy London street, twelve days before Christmas. A man was seen standing over the body, but has yet to materialize. Then Jack is sent away to shed light on a grisly death on the Shetland Islands. The corpse of another young woman lies sprawled underneath the tower of secluded Doomdochry Castle. It looks like suicide, but Jack suspects foul play. WHAT SECRETS DOES THE CASTLE HOLD? The sinister MacAlister family will do everything it can to bar Jack from uncovering the truth.
