Cut Dead

When three women are found headless and mutilated in a pit on a farm, it's a return to a chilling case for DCI Savage and her team. For the killings bear all the hallmarks of The Candle Cake Killer, a man who mutilated and killed his victims on consecutive midsummer's days leaving no clue apart from a piece of birthday cake. The police were unable to catch him, and for several years the Candle Cake Killer lay dormant. But now he's back and Midsummer's Day is fast approaching.
