But her life falls apart when the schoolboy dies from his injuries. The police believe Anna’s story, until the autopsy results reveal something more sinister.

Anna then becomes the target for a media whirlwind she could never have expected. She spirals downwards into a precarious mental state with all the interest into her own life and her ‘reasons’ for killing someone else’s child while trying to protect her own .

Then she receives a message from someone claiming to be the ‘Ophelia Killer’, responsible for a series of murders twenty years ago. What is the link between Anna and this killer? What does he want with her?Is killing someone something which connects them…but how?
