DSI Stella Gibson's worst fears are realised as Spector's murder spree in Belfast continues and she faces very real consequences after a reckless decision. [1]
Plot[]
Dr Reed Smith (Archie Panjabi) is called to the scene of Sarah Kay's murder, a crime for which PC Danielle Ferrington (Niamh McGrady) blames herself. Gibson realises Ferrington failed to connect the break-in to the killers MO but recruits her to her team none-the-less. Morgan Monroe (Ian McElhinney) coerces Burns into clearing his son's name in relation to killings, whilst DS Olson is assassinated outside his home. Meanwhile, Spector destroys evidence of his latest crime, whilst Katie Benedetto (Aisling Franciosi), the children's 15-year old babysitter, expresses her interest in the family man.
