The body of DS Dave Marvin is found with his throat slashed in a parking lot that has connections to the case. Although there were no signs of sexual activity as in the other cases, someone tried to carve letters into his body but was evidently interrupted. A very embittered Raymond Carstairs reveals that his father, one of the victims, not only was headmaster at a children's school but abused children too, even his own son. Grace suspects that the semen found on the victims may have been purchased on-line. As the case builds to a resolution Bulmer and Boyd clash.
