It soon emerges that after leaving the firm, Emily had started working for an online pornography studio, run by her long-estranged half-sister, Lisa Conroy. Of late, Emily was being hounded by one of her clients, Robert Tanner, and had recently asked another studio employee, Darren, to set up a video intercom at her flat for safety. Also, someone had been sending Emily bouquets of roses for some time, with blank cards.
As Havers and Lynley investigate, they begin to uncover secrets in Emily’s life that throw a shocking new light on the possible motive for which she was murdered. They also discover that Emily’s killing closely parallels the death of another young woman 15 years ago. It seems that both tragedies rotate around the same man.
