Lucas is called in to investigate a triple-murder: a house has been burned down and the couple and their child are found to have been murdered. Turns out that they had something which the killer wanted, and Lucas soon determines this to be a photograph, but when he finds the photograph, it's not clear why it was so important.

This was a pretty good one but perhaps not one of the best. This is the book when Lucas first meets Weather. It turns out that she is pivotal to the investigation, and soon she becomes a target of the "Ice Man" who killed the family and set fire to their house at the start of the book.
