DCI Helene MacKay has a dilemma
Although she loves her job as head of a Major Crime Investigation Team, her superior officer treats her with contempt. Her confidence is evaporating, and a series of misguided relationships has left her questioning her worth.
Helene is tempted away with the offer of a role as lead investigator in a new crime fighting initiative, Invidia.
Still wracked with self-doubt, Helene is unsure she can rise to the challenge of their first case, the discovery of a mass grave of young women; a feeling reinforced when she discovers her former boss is linked to the new unit.
