Too many murders go unsolved. So a trio of detectives - a renowned former FBI agent, a forensic sculptor and a brilliant profiler - decided to do something about it. They created the Vidocq Society, an exclusive club made of the finest collection of forensic minds ever seen. They meet monthly andtogether solve cases that are cold, stalled or plain dead.

Whether it is the ruthless killers of a millionaire’s son, a serial murderer who carves off faces, or a child killer enjoying fifty years of freedom - among countless others - the three men and their associates brilliantly uncover new evidence or forge daring lines of enquiry as they breathe new life into some of the world’s coldest and darkest murder cases.
