Description

Dans un terrain vague de la banlieue de Londres, une pelleteuse met au jour cinq cadavres de femmes atrocement mutilées. Un seul lien unit tous ces corps tailladés puis recousus : un oiseau a été enfermé vivant à l'intérieur de chaque cage thoracique. C'est avec ces meurtres en série que l'inspecteur Jack Caffery inaugure son nouveau poste au Service régional des enquêtes sensibles. Entre l'hostilité de certains de ses collègues, sa vie conjugale étouffante et la tension grandissante entre lui et un voisin qu'il soupçonne d'être responsable de la disparition de son propre frère, Caffery est mis à rude épreuve. Mais l'enquête dont il est chargé est de celle qui font oublier tout le reste. D'ailleurs, il le sait d'expérience : le cauchemar ne fait que commencer.
