With DS Annie Cabbot pregnant and due to start her maternity leave, DCI Alan Banks is feeling low, until a mysterious phone message leads him to Harrogate to search for his estranged younger brother, Roy.
Meanwhile, at the scene of the murder of a young woman found in her car near Eastvale, Banks’ team are introduced to DI Helen Morton, drafted to cover Annie’s imminent departure. Uncomfortable working as part of a team and often tactless, Helen quickly alienates her new colleagues.
Matters are made worse when the team discover DCI Banks’ name and address in the pocket of the victim, Jennifer Lewis, and unable to locate him, Helen speculates that their boss could be a suspect in the case. Unaware that his team are searching for him, Banks begins to delve into the life of his brother, and soon uncovers questionable business transactions and associates, as well as an angry fiancée and an affair.
Could Banks’ brother be the killer his team are searching for?
