5. The Complete Picture

WhodunnitsThe Killing Season
Episode 5 of 6

A burnt photograph offers up a clue for Detective Inspector Carter, but tragedy strikes elsewhere... Stars Sean Barrett.

The pieces of the jigsaw are coming together for DI Carter, and the significance of the burnt photograph and the wildlife island are about to be explained.

For another policeman however, tragedy is set to strike...

The season of peace and goodwill in the small town of Melford seems a million miles away after a series of deaths began on Christmas Eve.
