Episode 7 of 8

Crime drama set in Victorian Whitechapel. The murder of a chemist lifts the lid on a backstreet abortion racket concealing a nefarious scheme.

The murder of a chemist leads the team into the shadowy underworld of illegal abortionists and a backstreet racket which conceals a nefarious scheme. And when one of Long Susan's business ventures is on the cusp of ruination, she realises she needs to regain control - despite the patriarchy's attempts to undermine her every effort. Meanwhile, Dr Frayn's desire to modernise the practices at Obsidian Clinic sets her in conflict with both Susan and the authorities.
