Gemma Guillory has lived in Rainier her entire life. She knows the tiny towns ins and outs like the back of her hand, the people like they are her family, their quirks as if they were her own. She knows her once charming town is now remembered for one reason, and one reason only. That three innocent people died. That the last stop on the Rainier Rippers trail of deaths fifteen years ago was her innocuous little tea shop. She knows that the consequences of catching the Ripper still haunt her policeman husband and their marriage to this day and that some of her neighbours are desperate - desperate enough to welcome a dark tourism company keen to cash in on Rainiers reputation as the murder town. When the tour operator is killed by a Ripper copycat on Gemmas doorstep, the unease that has lurked quietly in the original killers wake turns to foreboding, and shes drawn into the investigation.
