As the investigation deepens, Moomy and her detective partner Sarah Heaton uncover a sinister underground group brought together by their hatred of women. But their roots run deep, and they count some very powerful people in their number.

To stop the bloodshed, Moomy must delve into the sickest corners of the internet, a place where hatred festers, unchecked - but she needs to be fast, because the killer has his sights set on her...
