A volatile male personality with enough strength to murder a man with his bare hands and a female with the sexual chemistry to lure potential victims to their death.

In the background the legacy of Jimmy Beck continues to twist the knife in Fitz's relationship with the traumatised Penhaligon while Fitz's wife Judith desperately tries to cling to the wreckage of her marriage as she realises with awesome clarity the full impact of a new baby on their lives.
