Over the next forty-eight hours the Ghost ruthlessly hunts for the families while Rhyme, aided by a policeman from mainland China, struggles to find thme before they die and Sachs pursues a very different kind of policework – forming a connecton with one of the immigrants that may have consequences going to the core of her relationship with Rhyme, her oartner and lover.
