The second Peninsula Murder Mystery.
An unidentified man is fished out of the sea with an anchor strapped to his waist. And for Detective Inspector Hal Challis, this sparks the beginning of a chilling series of shotgun killings.

And then Challis finds some aerial photographs in the possession of his friend Kitty that link her to the murders.
