"Nach den beiden Morden haben Sie sicher Angst, die waren ja ganz in Ihrer Nähe." In einem modernen Biotech-Unternehmen in London entdeckt die Data-Spezialistin Midnight Jones ein außergewöhnliches psychometrisches Profil: das eines Killers. Kurz darauf geschehen in ihrer Nachbarschaft brutale Morde an zwei Frauen, und alles deutet darauf hin, dass es sich um denselben Psychopathen handelt. Doch niemand glaubt Midnight, dass er noch mehr vorhat. Ihr wird klar: "Profil K" wird weiter töten – und sie wird sein nächstes Opfer sein.

On the dark streets of Edinburgh, a killer is waiting. When a body is found, it is only the beginning. Soon there will be seven more. In the city’s hospital, renowned surgeon Beth Waterfall is grieving. Her beloved only daughter fell prey to a vicious stalker a year previously – and now he’s coming for her too. Edinburgh’s police are desperate. After one body comes another, and then another. The brutal deaths are all seemingly unconnected, yet DS Lively and forensic profiler Dr Connie Woolwine know they are dealing with a serial killer – they just need to prove it.

Am Stadtrand von Edinburgh wird die Leiche von Zoey Cole gefunden. Sie wurde entführt, festgehalten und dann ermordet. Bei der Obduktion wird klar, dass der Täter ihr zwei Hautstücke entfernt hat. DI Luc Callanach und seine Chefin DCI Ava Turner nehmen die Ermittlungen auf, doch der Täter hat kaum Spuren hinterlassen. Dann verschwindet eine weitere Frau, und ihr Baby wird zurückgelassen in einer Seitenstraße gefunden. Im Kinderwagen liegt eine Puppe - genäht aus der Haut von Zoey Cole.

In der Nähe von Edinburgh werden in einer abgebrannten Waldhütte die Überreste einer Frauenleiche gefunden. Nur wenige Gewebsspuren führen zu dem Schluss, dass es sich bei der Toten um die vor Tagen verschwundene Anwältin Elaine Buxton handelt. Detective Luc Callanach, der gerade erst seinen Dienst bei der Police Scotland angetreten hat, leitet die Ermittlungen. Doch er ahnt nicht, dass die echte Elaine Buxton noch lebt und in einem Keller gefangen gehalten wird.

Zwei Mordfälle in ein und derselben Nacht erschüttern Edinburgh: Zuerst wird inmitten eines Rockfestivals ein junger Besucher erstochen, und dem Täter gelingt es, in der Menge unterzutauchen. Dann wird nur wenige Stunden später die Leiche einer Krankenschwester entdeckt. Es gibt keine verwertbaren forensischen Spuren, doch eine Gemeinsamkeit: Beide Opfer werden von ihren Mitmenschen als "gute Seelen" beschrieben - und beide mussten unter besonders grausamen Umständen sterben. Detective Callanach steht vor dem Beginn einer Mordserie, die ihm das Blut in den Adern gefrieren lässt.
