Som en af de mest højprofilerede indsatte i Holloway-fængslet kan Helen Grace ikke gemme sig. Hun har fået mange fjender i løbet af sin karriere, og nogle af dem sidder bag tremmer inden for de selv samme mure. Da en af Helens medfanger bliver fundet skamferet og myrdet i sin aflåste celle, står det klart, at morderen er en indefra.

En ung kvinde vågner op i en kold, mørk kælder uden nogen anelse om, hvordan hun kom derned, eller hvem hendes kidnapper er. Således begynder hendes værste mareridt.

I nærheden bliver liget af en anden ung kvinde opdaget, hvor hun er blevet begravet på en afsidesliggende strand. Men den døde pige blev aldrig meldt savnet – hendes fremmedgjorte familie havde modtaget regelmæssige beskeder fra hende igennem årene. Nogen har holdt hende i live hinsides graven.

Kommissær Helen Grace har oplevet mange tragedier i sit liv, men da der bliver fundet et lig i en S/M natklub i Southampton, kommer døden pludselig alt for tæt på. Helen skjuler sin personlige forbindelse til offeret – og et dobbeltliv, der bør hemmeligholdes for enhver pris.

Liget af en kvinde ligger på landevejen.

I en anden del af byen bliver en butiksindehaver dræbt, mens hans kunder får lov til at slippe uskadt. Men hvad ligger bag morderens valg?
