To solve the riddle and uncover what really happened Cormac is faced with the unsavoury task of visiting Burnham in prison once more. In a series of tense interviews Burnham is surprisingly helpful and Cormac discovers who really did kill Marie Simpson and why.

But behind it all lies a deeper conspiracy that reveals Burnham’s true motive …
