A student is found dead in an alley, and evidence suggests that it was a drug deal that turned violent. They soon discover that the victim has links with a parish priest, who seems to have a lot more to hide than the sanctity of the confessional. The case soon becomes more complicated when a second murder occurs.
Den studerende Ryan Petrie findes knivdræbt i en gyde. Senere samme dag findes pr-konsulenten Fiona Marshall myrdet på sit kontor. Drabsmetoden er den samme, men motivet er uklart. Er der en forbindelse mellem ofrene? Eller dræber morderen i flæng? Taggart-holdet forsøger at finde svarene, inden morderen slår til igen.
