One of the murdered lovers was stripped of identification, but it's clear their killing had psychological overtones. Sturgis reaches out to psychologist Dr. Alex Delaware. With few leads and baffling obstacles, they follow the money. When the trail abruptly turns red-hot, Delaware and Sturgis discover a monstrous scheme rooted in deception and depravity beyond even a season LAPD cop's twisted imagination.
