Wel heel spannende detective over een team rechercheurs, met Stella aan het hoofd. Stella heeft een vriend en een minnaar en vindt het erg moeilijk om te kiezen. Er worden jonge vrouwen geheel verminkt, lang gemarteld met een mes gevonden. Het oplossen duurt best lang omdat er weinig aanknopingspunten zijn. De daders zijn een man en een vrouw. De vrouw is door haar moeder regelmatig met een mes bewerkt als kind, zo gaat dat dóór. De man is een afgewezen volger. Uiteindelijk wordt bekend dat hij de dader is en dat bekoopt hij ook met de dood.
