The victims forehead and eyes are wrapped in a band of white paper, sealed on one side with red sealing wax. On the other is a smear of blood in the shape of a figure eight. The body has been roughly and violently shaved clean - head to toe - a temporary tattoo on his finger.

As another brutalised body appears, then another, it becomes horrifyingly clear that someone is recreating unsolved murders from Philadelphias past in the most sinister of ways. And the killer is closer than they think...
