In a haunting exploration of societal fringes, DI Tom Thorne becomes embroiled in a chilling case that draws him into the shadows of London’s homeless community. Following a series of brutal attacks that leave the city’s most vulnerable in peril, Thorne's investigation takes on a personal edge as he immerses himself in a world often ignored. Stripped of his badge and brought face-to-face with the harsh realities of life on the streets, he seeks not just to unmask a killer but to understand the plight of those he encounters.

As he navigates the murky alleyways and hidden corners of the city, Thorne grapples with moral dilemmas, loyalty, and the stigma attached to homelessness. Each encounter reveals a tapestry of stories, hope, and despair, challenging his perceptions of justice and humanity. The deeper he delves, the closer he gets to a truth that threatens not only his mission but his very essence.

Amid the tension and thrill of the chase, the narrative delves into the psychological ramifications of crime and the fragility of life for those who exist on the margins of society. Thorne's journey ultimately raises profound questions about worth, dignity, and the cost of survival in an unforgiving world.
