In each case, the murderer is found near the victim and remembers nothing of the crime.

A lot of animals are shown in very small cages in awful circumstances, including a monkey, different birds, bunnies, and possibly cats or small dogs.

The main character sees a vision of his wife having hanged herself in their living room, but this is revealed to be an illusion.

One of the first murders is of a sex worker, and no sexual situation is shown, but it is just after, and you do see her bare breasts.

It’s not directly stated, but it’s clear that the wife has some sort of degenerative disease. Plus, the killer seems to feign being a complete amnesiac with an incredibly short-term memory.
