The Isle of Man, normally a haven of tranquil living, is rocked by a series of unexplained house fires. When the bodies of an old couple are discovered in the burned-out shell of their home, the tension increases as it is learned that it wasn't the fire that killed them. Meanwhile, when Dick pays Rachel 300 for an hour of her time, Rachel has no inkling that he will be her last paying client. She never planned leaving this life in a pool of blood, but that's the way her partner found her a couple of hours later. The police are struggling to find sufficient resources to solve the house fires and Rachel's murder. It is the fortnight when the Isle of Man hosts the world famous TT road races. All police leave is cancelled as the island's population is augmented by 40,000 leather-clad bikers. It doesn't help that a new police superintendent, who seems to be totally out of her depth, is running the show. Cathryn Brady, universally known as Miss Piggy, seems to be more interested in public opinion than in solving crime, and her senior officers have had enough. Yet amongst the murder and mayhem, the baffling figure of Unicorn looms large, orchestrating events from deep in the shadows. Will Unicorn be exposed before the whole island goes up in flames? There's only one way to find out.
