En Australie, près de Sydney, le corps calciné d'une jeune femme est retrouvé dans une carcasse de voiture abandonnée sur une plage. La police, menée par l'inspecteur Ramsey, accepte l'aide de l'ancien policier Thompson, désormais à la retraite mais incapable de supporter son inactivité, pour enquêter sur ce meurtre. L'affaire s'avère être difficile car le visage de la morte est tellement détruit qu'il est impossible de l'identifier. Le seul indice : les restes du pyjama jaune qu'elle portait.
