This time out, Creegan & Taylor with the Organised and Serial Crime Unit have their hands full after some deeply disturbed criminals. One is a serial kidnapper-murderer whose fatal fascination with young women leaves Creegan with a new scar to bear. Another is a profoundly disturbed relief worker whose nightmares of atrocities committed in Bosnia impel him to erase the memories of fellow aides permanently; and the last is an international ring of baby brokers.
