When a man's dismembered body is discovered at an abandoned quarry on the north Norfolk coast, DI Tom Janssen and his team must wade through his secretive life to figure out how he met his end.

With a community reeling from such a gruesome and seemingly macabre act of violence the pressure is on to get a result.
