Angela Bray returns to the Wye Valley laboratory while physician Priscilla Chambers remains with the consultancy and contributes her knowledge of anthropology. Their next investigation begins when a headless body with bound hands is recovered from a bog near the Welsh resort of Borth.

The condition of the remains makes identity, time of death and cause of death difficult to establish, and the findings soon affect a case already shaped by legal assumptions. Richard and his colleagues must produce evidence strong enough to challenge an accepted account and provide credible grounds for appeal.
