Description: The routine forensic examination of a boy's body washing up from a meandering river reveals that he has been murdered. Meanwhile, the investigation of a convicted pedophile in a nearby village leads to the discovery of five decaying bodies in his garden. Between them, Helena Flemming and John Eisenmenger uncover abuse far more grotesque than anyone might have imagined, and reveal the murky depths beneath the idyllic surface of village life.
