When Marlott makes the shocking discovery of a corpse that's actually a crude assembly of body parts arranged in a grotesque parody of a human form, he is tasked by Peel with tracking the perpetrator. As he investigates, Marlott discovers that what he's dealing with is more horrific than he could possibly have imagined."

In the large ensemble are: Anna Maxwell Martin, Charlie Creed-Miles, Ed Stoppard, Elliot Cowan, Hugh O'Conor, Joe Tucker, Kate Dickie, Lalor Roddy, Patrick Fitzsymons, and Richie Campbell, along with Robbie Gee, Ryan Sampson, Samuel West, Shaun Mason, Steve Wilson, Steven Berkoff, Stuart Graham, Tom Ward and Vanessa Kirby.
