Summary
Richard and Rex are investigating the murders of four young women, the bodies buried exactly 666 metres apart. It appears to be a ritual murder with one more scheduled to happen in the next few days. While Rex is confined to home with a cold, Richard has to solve the case on his own.

The good
I like the finale of this episode, very action packed and exciting. Also good to see Koller getting on better with Rex.

The bad
I know you're not here to hear my rants but... the portrayal of the cult was very clichéd and stereotypical. It wasn’t particularly original and used a lot of symbols that come from existing and peaceful religions. I know quite a few people who would be insulted if they saw it. I was very disappointed.
