It’s 1964, and 22-year-old Trisha moves into a West Hampstead bedsitter to escape her controlling suburban parents and her boring fiancé, Keith. She’s determined to make it as a swinging, get-ahead girl-about-town, but finds herself struggling with homesickness, loneliness and the challenges of cooking a decent meal on a single gas ring. Then she rescues a grotty wardrobe from her landlady’s attic, and it yields a surprising treasure – a copy of Cooking in a Bedsitter, which becomes her bible.

Urban residents are showing up dead, victims of a serial killer that eerily echo the 13 Killer, and it falls to Ruby to piece together why these victims are being targeted. Who is doing the killer’s dirty work this time? And does Ruby have what it takes to stop him?

FBI Special Agent Ruby Hunter wants nothing more than to put the 13 killer, and her days in the FBI, behind her, and to try to pick up the pieces of her life. But he refuses to rot quietly. Ruby realizes she must do the thing she dreads the most: Visit him in prison. But he is diabolical and cunning, an expert at toying with his victims—and with her.
