It all begins with a hit-and-run incident, which results in the death of a 14-year-old girl. The driver had a good reason for speeding - he was the getaway driver in a jewel robbery. His two other accomplices manage to escape, but he is hospitalized and then arrested. But before they can question him, a hit-man on a bike shoots both him and the police officer who was with him at the time - a beloved, veteran cop called Eddie Carter. Needless to say, DCI Janine Lewis and everyone in her department are more than anxious to find the killer.
A very, very gloomy episode, with a resolution that's both unpredictable and a little underwhelming. Some new additions to the cast as well: a new (female) boss, who must be the first police boss of any gender I've ever seen that's calm and co-operative instead of an a$$hole, a new (female) detective who kind of stays in the background but is nice to have around, and a new, more grown-up actress playing Janine's elder daughter. **1/2 out of 4.
