As Kit and Ruby trawl the mean streets of London in search of answers, Daisy, Rob’s bereaved young widow, cannot control her grief and soon she is attending illegal raves, picking up strangers and attending seances, while Rob’s younger brother Daniel is handed the unenviable task of keeping her safe.
