Detective Chief Inspector Greave is leading a team investigating three linked murders in rural Norfolk - one of the lowest crime areas in the country.

Both victims had their heads shaved antemortem - and Greave discovers a link to a case in London a couple of years ago: the Dead List murders.

Next she receives her own Dead List but the names on the list don't belong to the victims but to Christian martyrs in the first century.
