Stuck in a traffic jam, Nicki Clements sees a face she hoped never to see again. It's definitely the same police officer; he's stopping all the cars on Elmhirst Road. Keen to avoid him, Nicki does a U-turn, praying he won't notice her. He doesn't, but a CCTV camera does, as Nicki finds out when detectives pull her in for questioning the next day in connection with the murder of Damon Blundy. Nicki has no idea why a killer might sharpen nine knives at the scene, then use two blunt ones to kill. And she can't explain her desire to avoid Elmhirst Road on the day in question without revealing a secret that could ruin her life...
