Series: Simon Serrailler

One snowy night, an old lady is murdered - dragged from her bed in her sheltered accommodation, and strangled with a length of flex. DCS Simon Serrailler and his team keep some of the bizarre circumstances surrounding her death a secret as they desperately search for clues to her murderer. All they know is that the killer will strike again, and will once more leave the same tell-tale signature. Then they track down a name: Alan Keyes. But Alan Keyes has no birth certificate, no address, no job, no family, no passport, no dental records. Nothing. Alan Keyes does not exist.
