Detective Nikki Parekh receives a series of threatening postcards, warning her that the man who escaped arrest after murdering her mother two years ago is back. The postcards have a similar message: "You're next, Parekh." As the post marks on the cards gradually get closer to Bradford, Nikki must do everything she can to protect her family and catch the killer before it's too late.

However, when human remains are found in a remote barn on the icy Yorkshire moors, Nikki's attention is pulled away from her family. A tattoo on the victim's arm, the only means of identification, leads nowhere, and the team has already met a dead end.

Will the team be able to make a breakthrough before someone else gets hurt, and can Nikki finally get justice for her mother's tragic death?
