After two successful years filling country postings, Detective Senior Constable Vergil John Rankin had been transferred to the State Police Headquarters. Sick of investigating petty crime, he followed a lead he stumbled onto during a routine investigation into car theft that led to murder suspects in the unsolved murder of a woman. The head of the murder squad condemned his private investigation when he first learnt of it, but soon he was turning to Rankin to help settle the case.
He was promoted to Inspector and joined the murder squad. The murder of a gangland leader, his bodyguard and mistress was a challenging case. Rankin suspected that a professional hitman had committed the crimes, but finding the body of the hitman made the case more baffling. Learning that the gangland leader had made an appointment to talk to the Police Commissioner made him sure they had all been killed to shut them up. But who had so much to lose that they would commit four murders? This case led Rankin into dangerous territory – police headquarters. Three more bodies would join the others before the case was solved.
