Summary

Hamburg State Prosecutor Chastity Riley and her colleagues investigate the murders of men with a history of abuse towards women . . . as a startling, horrifying series of revelations emerge.

When neatly packed male body parts wash up by the River Elbe, Hamburg State Prosecutor Chastity Riley and her colleagues begin a perplexing investigation. As the murdered men are identified, it becomes clear that they all had a history of abuse towards women, leading Riley to wonder if it would actually be in society's best interests to catch the killers. But when her best friend Carla is attacked, and the police show little interest in tracking down the offender, Chastity takes matters into her own hands and as a link between the two cases emerges, horrifying revelations threaten Chastity's own moral compass . . . and put everything at risk.

Disappointing

It was reviewed as a crime novel. There are many crimes mentioned, but none investigated in a through way. At times it appears to be about relationships, but too superficial to be of interest. At times, a stream of consciousness, but by a person we know little about and care even less. To the extent that there is a theme, it is cynicism.
