Deux meurtres spectaculaires sont perpétrés à Boston à six semaines d'intervalle. Dans les deux cas, les victimes sont des femmes seules, atrocement mutilées, à côté desquelles l'assassin a déposé une rose. L'inspectrice D. D. Warren, chargée de l'enquête, décèle vite une similitude entre ces mises en scène macabres et une longue série de meurtres ayant défrayé la chronique à Boston quarante ans plus tôt et dont l'auteur, Harry Day, s'est suicidé depuis. Seul recours pour D. D. Warren : se rapprocher des deux filles de Harry Day.

Un homme est abattu de trois coups de feu à son domicile. Lorsque la police arrive sur place, elle trouve sa femme, Evie, enceinte de cinq mois, l'arme à la main. Celle-ci n'est pas une inconnue pour l'enquêtrice D.D. Warren. Accusée d'avoir tué son propre père d'un coup de fusil alors qu'elle était âgée de seize ans, elle a finalement été innocentée, la justice ayant conclu à un accident. Simple coïncidence ? Evie est-elle coupable ou victime de son passé ?
