My Review:-This is Book Two in 'The Chastity Reloaded Series' This book is translated from the original German book. Chastity Riley, Hamburg State Prosecutor is busy preparing for an upcoming court case when she gets a call to say male body parts, hands, feet, head have been found in the River Elbe in a bin liner. but this isn't going to the only ones that are found. It's not long before more body parts are found, but also a full body is found. Each of the body and parts found have be killed in the same way. It's up to Bruckner, Calabretta and Chastity to find out what happened, why and also who has done this. There is one thing in common, they all have a history of abusing women.

 There is also another storyline running alongside, Chastity's best friend Carla and bar owner has been raped by two men. When Chastity sees her she's not in a good place, but the police aren't that interested in the case, so after finding out what happened it's up to Chastity to find out more.

Are to two cases linked in some way, you need to read it to find out. The characters in the story are interesting group of people. Chastity is someone that knows what she wants and will do what she can to get it. This is a book that you will have to read yourself. I just want to say the translation by Rachel Ward is amazing.
