01:30Fleur wants this all clear.
01:32You know those parakeet flowers of yours?
01:34Mm-hmm.
01:35Not loving that spot.
01:36They'll stay where they are.
01:38Poor things, wilting away.
01:41I always say gardening is all about balance.
01:45Here I was thinking it was about enjoying peace and quiet.
01:48Or connecting with something bigger than yourself.
01:50Go on, where do you plant them?
01:54Well, they do best in partial shade.
01:57Plenty of morning light, but avoid the afternoon sun.
02:01Don't want them burning out.
02:02I shall bear that in mind.
02:03Baxter, drop everything.
02:06I've had 30 kilos of grog clay delivered, and it's baking in the sun.
02:11Be a darling and shift it for me, would you, before it turns to concrete?
02:15Hello, neighbor.
02:16Quiet morning.
02:18What?
02:19Friday, 9.30 as usual.
02:20If you're late again, I'm leaving without you.
02:22Oh, you are cruel.
02:24Can you remind me to pick up starfruit?
02:26I've been experimenting with my smoothies.
02:29Right, Baxter, let's go.
02:31When the muse is upon me, I must strike while the clay is still soft.
02:35When the muse is upon me, I must strike while the clay is still soft.
03:05Fancy a cold glass of homemade lemonade?
03:12I'd kill it for one.
03:30I think it came from down there.
03:33Did it come for an Henry's?
03:35Henry!
03:38Henry!
03:40I hope he's all right.
03:42Henry!
03:44Henry!
03:46Henry?
03:46Henry?
03:47No.
03:53Who did this?
03:54Who did this?
04:15Who did this?
04:16Who?
04:17Who did this?
04:18Who did this?
04:20jeans down relax your faces in Paris we say you don't take a photograph you
04:44create it okay you're really into this just makes a change to be in a photo where my head won't get
04:53cut off every family photo ever you see me from the shoulders don't shall we try your hand on your
05:02hip less like you've stepped on the sea urchin more like you just heard the rums on the house
05:11morning commissioner where is inspector Wilson we did try sir he said he's only here short term so
05:25didn't think it was his place also apparently football is on and presumably the prime rate
05:32drops every time his team plays one can only hope sir the whole point of this initiative is to make
05:42the wider community feel that we are all in this for them to strengthen their trust in us how are we
05:54going to begin to do that when our senior detective can't be bothered to turn up for a team photograph
06:02he better make it to the launch this evening
06:05um I should get that excuse me sir
06:11come on just give me the second half it's not even a big game
06:21what the commissioner is seriously not happy you missed your close-up
06:30can't they just photoshop me in something tells me he's not going to go for that
06:35is that what you came here for no there's been a shooting up in the hills
06:38stupid island
06:49victim's name is henry ashby originally from the uk moved to saint marie 10 years ago
06:57what else do we know uh his neighbor fleur edwards and her gardener baxter turton heard the shot around
07:0510 30 when they arrived the doors were wide open and they saw someone on a white moped speeding off
07:11through the trees miss edwards said she saw the same moped outside the house last night even got a
07:17registration number sergeant fletcher is on the case
07:20oh there's mud on the floor
07:25no sign of a forced entry so either the victim let the killer in
07:32or the killer let themself in from the garden shot henry and pegged it back the same way that's a
07:39serious tattoo boss do i feel like i've seen it somewhere before yeah it's pegasus oh the flying
07:47horse mutant thing something like that and the bloke riding him is bellerophon he's part of the
07:52parachute regiment in sigmia mate of mine had one he said the army trained him for anything
07:59which is why now runs a soft plane croydon
08:01yeah he might be a military man so let's check that out shall we
08:0910 years on this island and not even a vase in the gaff a big read as all yeah man had a lot of books
08:22interesting what is this is a meticulously organized library and he's filed his books alphabetically by
08:29author reading has never really been my thing you know but if i have to read a book i usually start
08:36at the last page first you know i mean swear of the sad endings hang on there's one missing
08:44this section is charles dickens novels uh pickwick papers our mutual friend david copperfield etc
08:51there's one missing which one is it i think it's tired of two cities yeah it's definitely tired of two
09:02cities where can that have got to officer rose check the bedside table yeah he might have lent it to
09:10someone or even lost it maybe nothing in the bedroom sir
09:25i was taking up my boots then we both heard it it's terrifying i could feel it in my bones something
09:33awful had happened we rushed straight over but we were too late next thing i know i heard ties kicking
09:40up dirt couldn't get a look at the registration plate but they were wearing a helmet and a black top
09:49and you said you think you saw the same moped last night i'm often not working late from my studio i
09:54can see henry's someone was outside lurking peering through his windows at first i thought maybe it was
10:03the delivery driver wrong address but something felt off so i jotted the number plate down in my
10:11sketchbook how long have you lived out here three months long enough to adore it i needed space for
10:18my work to find inspiration and look of course when i arrived the garden was an absolute jungle hired me on
10:28the spot said the weeds were choking her genius and henry was he a good neighbor he kept kept to
10:38himself didn't seem to want to get close still he drove you into town on fridays right big shop day
10:45that's the only thing on his calendar he offered i may have mentioned how tiresome i find driving
10:50having done it for years in london and there's no jubilee line on saint marie right quite
10:58anyone else ever stop by not that i know of floor is right mr asby wasn't much for company
11:07preferred books yeah speaking of which did he ever lend you any tell the two cities maybe dickens
11:15inspector inspector we'll be in touch thank you
11:28so that moped's from a rental outfit more panglory just spoke to the owner winston bit of a relic but
11:34he keep our good records you know bottom line uh drivers are tourists from the uk arrived a week ago but
11:40he provided an id and a local address craig pinnock an accountant from nonhead in london
11:52craig pinnock want to step away from the bike please
11:59so how can i help you detectives there's not a problem is there we need to establish your whereabouts
12:05this morning yeah fatal shooting just a few miles from here a man called henry ashby was murdered
12:12do you know him well i no never heard of the guy that's funny a moped just like the one you were
12:21scrubbing clean outside was used to flee the scene we also have evidence placing that same white moped and
12:28its driver outside the victim's house last night what sorry oh no there must be some mistake i um
12:37no i didn't shoot anyone
12:41how do we clear this up let's start from the beginning yeah
12:46last night why was your moped seen outside the victim's villa up in the hills
12:53right okay um so i may have driven past that house last night but only because i took a wrong turn
12:59i was um i was looking for a property a villa that i'd seen online and um i thought there might
13:05be somebody in to point me in the right direction but no answer you were looking for a house for sale
13:12after dark yes i mean it was supposed to have beautiful sunset views and um
13:19well i'm looking to buy out here yeah remote accounting best dress so you were at the victim's
13:24villa but you never interacted with him no no absolutely not what about in the morning
13:32it was definitely my moped that was seen our witnesses didn't get a registration but the
13:37description matches and the rider was wearing a black top okay so i can see now why you might
13:45think it was me but it wasn't so it was just coincidence someone else was there this morning
13:53dressed just like you on a similar white moped outside the same property you were visiting last
13:58night must be that's bizarre isn't it but i can assure you detectives that i was nowhere near that house
14:07then where were you 10 30 when the shooting happened well in coconut water there's a street
14:13bender and i'd stopped to make a work call felt thirsty and this was definitely 10 30. where was this
14:20crescent cove
14:23the opposite side of the island to the crime scene convenient convenient now look you've got the wrong
14:31person i didn't shoot anyone check my phone we will thank you for your help we'll be in touch if
14:39we need anything further well the vendor confirms he served craig this morning and he was on his phone
14:45the whole time that's why i remembers him craig's client also confirms they spoke at 15 30 uk time
14:52which is 10 30 here they spoke for five minutes and it all tallies with the call of untreeks but it has
14:59to be craig that shot henry ashby his clothing was identified and the bike and he was outside henry's
15:05the night before and you saw what it was like at the villa it was all over the place but he has an
15:10alibi for the time of the murder sir so if it was him then how did he do it
15:22craig's definitely holding back so if we don't yet know how he managed to shoot henry ashby
15:36let's focus on his motive why did he do it
15:43sergeant fletcher what have you got for us inspector a bit of a development at henry's
15:50he's seems there's a little more to him than we first thought
15:58a spy i'm telling you he has to be a spy henry was definitely mixed up in something murky
16:04surveillance perhaps a spy a hundred percent i'm talking code names you know drop-off locations
16:11secret hand shares exploding pens his military records came in henry rose through the ranks quickly
16:18before a voluntary discharge 15 years ago then nothing no paper trail no fixed address vanished
16:27until saint marie what about his phone zero phone calls the man had nobody checking in i mean it's
16:35like you just totally ghosted life and his laptop locked down tight but i've asked the lab and they're
16:42checking it out but his bank account stuck living off grid with serious money behind him makes you wonder
16:50who or what was he running from i've got a mate in organized crime command i'll give her a call see
16:57if what we found triggers anything her in but let's keep looking into craig pinnock now we know that the
17:03victim isn't what he seems there must be a reason craig wanted him dead it's time we headed over to the
17:10commissioner's launch ready sir uh i'll catch you up i got this phone call to make first okay see you
17:19there don't be late you know commissioner asked us to say a few words about what saint marie means to us
17:34and i was like man i mean where do i start you know so what did you go for officer rose's top 10
17:42favorite places to fill your belly okay do you think that's quite what the commissioner
17:49uh hmm you know what that is perfect
17:56you're right big crowds it tends to happen when you offer free snacks inspector's cutting it fine we
18:06want to be in his booth when he arrives
18:08it's a wonderful turnout don't you think what all the phone calls
18:17if only every idea came together so smoothly
18:22i should have escorted him here myself
18:26mervyn made a commitment no
18:29focus on your speech
18:31and at number two we have the grill bar you know the one with the sweet sweet curry goat the one
18:39where the the chef sings love songs as he cooks i'm actually thinking about starting my own food
18:45tour so then open investor we can thank you thank you thank you for that enthusiasm
18:55officer rose and thank you for coming everyone tonight is a new beginning since returning to saint marie
19:09i have been made aware i need to recommit to
19:17reassure you that this island still matters to me to us
19:26and you its people matter even more this is the first step rebuilding trust strengthening
19:35the relationship between myself and my team
19:40and you the people we serve
19:48no answer
19:51we will proceed with the q and a as planned first questions please yes i've got a question
19:59why did the detective not bother showing up
20:01um well um i'm actually commissioner um can i take this one of course
20:15uh
20:27di wilson's not here because he's working on a murder case
20:33and knowing him he's probably so deep into it he
20:38hasn't realized the time
20:39but that's because he cares about his work all of us standing here care so much about what we do
20:49it's it's not just about solving crimes it's about doing it right and that's why we show up
20:57because it's not just what we do it's it's who we are
21:13thank you now
21:16next question
21:17so two sergeant thomas they're busting it
21:24look look who arrives just in time for the cleanup look i'm late i know but good news is there's no
21:31more speeches but the bad news no more snacks the commissioner left 10 minutes ago and he said he's
21:36very disappointed but not surprised direct quotes stop talking look i've got some major intel on our
21:43victim all right i mean it all makes total sense now the military background the fake passports
21:49living off grid i mean i should have worked this out before worked out what he was a spy no officer
21:55rose henry ashby was a professional hit man
22:04so multiple passports were found in the victim's house
22:07i don't believe it why is it so hard to get a book out of the library inspector
22:12you do still work here yeah commissioner look i'm sorry about last night but i was doing what
22:19i thought was best for the case disappearing in the name of duty is still disappearing
22:25i made my expectations very clear yes commissioner i'm sorry it won't happen again
22:32you might also offer thanks to ds thomas who covered for your absence with great aplomb
22:40thank you ds thomas right are we done no you will make amends with some community outreach work
22:50this is desiree one of our most senior residents was in attendance last night she told me she was in
22:57need of a little police assistance i said would pay her a visit that is her address
23:12a tale of two cities have you read it before i know but i used to work weekends with a guy who ran
23:20dickens to us like all his best redemption hope the destructive nature of revenge not a million miles
23:29from this case um ds thomas was updating me your victim is a hitman yeah organized crime linked henry
23:37ashby to a shelved case he's the prime suspect in a historic hit job in putney made to look like a
23:43break-in the victim was a shop owner with ties to loan sharks henry made it look like a break-in the theory
23:49goes henry's the guy you call in when things get heavy there's other suspected hits but the evidence
23:54is non-existent i went through the victim's bank statements commissioner there were years of large
23:59cash deposits no employer just drops why did they never catch him i expect because he was good at his
24:06job all they had on the guy was some grainy cctv footage and the description of a very distinctive tattoo
24:12pegasus no i still feel like i've seen that tattoo somewhere before you know i'm just not sure
24:19we're so i did some digging into our suspect craig pinnock turns out craig's a widower this was his
24:31wife lucy pinnock died 10 years ago on the 2nd of july so she was shot a home-breaking gone wrong
24:40no suspect no motive just a robbery turned fatal two robberies two deaths same mo
24:47well that's no coincidence and here three days before lucy's death the last cash strap so if henry
24:55was a contract killer and lucy pinnock was one of his last jobs then craig pinnock suddenly has
25:04really good motive to want henry ashby dead
25:07they were trying to scare me who was loan sharks i'd started gambling and um told myself i could get
25:18out of control but i owed so much money and they were starting to hound me when they came to collect
25:23what you owed them you didn't have it and your wife was collateral i hate myself every day for what they did
25:33uh what i caused but you didn't tell the police must have been eating you up alive inside
25:41the shame the guilt the rage and so you decided you'd hunt down henry ashby yourself i knew that
25:48the police would never find him because they didn't know the full truth that it was a professional hit
25:54not an easy job i mean that the trail was cold wasn't it for years the killer was hiding out here
26:01on saint marie how did you find henry well people i owed money to i did some digging eventually i found
26:10out who they paid to do their dirty work so you knew exactly who henry was and you came anyway
26:18if there was a chance i could look him in the eye get him to answer for what he did so revenge that
26:26was your plan you knew exactly whose house you're at that night okay look i admit i went there to
26:31confront him but i never laid eyes on him he wasn't there you went back the next morning to finish the
26:37job no i've already told you this i was on the other side of the island look whoever went there that
26:43morning to shoot him it was someone else it wasn't me something wrong officer rose or are you just
26:56exercising your thumb muscles hey i'm working actually had to scroll through this group chat to
27:01find his video but i did briefly get sidetracked by this chicken we're in carnival please be around the
27:07bush the more officer rose sir that tattoo you know how i thought i recognized it from somewhere
27:12boom three months ago henry saved a woman who was caught up in a riptide out at turtle bear
27:19he did no photos no press but somebody filmed it and the video went viral the man went in twice
27:29once for the old lady once for the little dog i printed these off you can see the pegasus tattoo in
27:35boat so we have a trained assassin who saves poodles in his spare time but it means literally anybody
27:42looking for henry ashby could have seen that video and come to the island for revenge all right so
27:49maybe someone else on a white moped wearing a black top did go to henry ashby's place that morning
27:57and shoot him okay we're gonna have to check all routes to the woods behind henry's place and
28:02any road cameras along the way we should also look into who else knew henry mm-hmm got it
28:16it's me
28:26police are gonna want to talk to me but i don't want you to worry
28:30still no joy with the moped no sign of anyone else on a white bike who could have possibly shot henry
28:45what's about fisherman's way it's the fastest route to the house the only camera along there has been
28:50busted for weeks so it's the perfect time for lunch yeah cold case hot prawns no seriously you have to
28:58try one of these captain crustacean fire cracker prawns but thank you but if you want real flavor
29:06oh you got to go to old man baptize behind the cricket ground my father used to take us after
29:11school baptize had this secret marinade legendary all right take your time they're spicy
29:23my man's got a little bit of a kick
29:28oh are you okay all right if we're speedy will make it to old man baptize before he shots we need milk
29:34interesting
29:47listen i didn't get to say this properly before but thank you for covering for me last night
29:56whatever it was you did or said that's okay sir i uh
30:01i know you're maybe not feeling like yourself at the moment yeah well um it's uh it's not been the
30:12best few weeks finding their brother then and going away again but you know mate i don't let those
30:20things get to me right right no sure you don't what well
30:28we haven't seen you much in the last week sir all you do is stay in your shack and watch football
30:38i like football i know but it's a lot of football yeah well there's a lot of games listen let's just
30:48focus on the case what have you got actually those weekly shopping trips henry used to take
30:58he was pulling out five hundred dollars like clockwork that's some major coinage for groceries
31:05and guess who was depositing the exact same amount into their account the same day every week
31:11fleur baxter
31:16henry was bankrolling fleur's gardener why well doesn't look like it was for fertilizer
31:23hush money maybe but the payment stopped one was due friday never came
31:34and a couple of days later henry's dead
31:37henry gave me money but you never thought to mention it
31:53why was he paying you he said it wasn't charity he had money sitting there doing nothing we're not
32:05talking about a few bobby mr turton this is thousands it sounds a lot to me like neverage extortion no no
32:13no that's not what it was i would never he stops paying you you get angry decide to punish him and
32:18that's why you son rio he was diagnosed with hodgkins lymphoma
32:26the card did early but it still turned everything upside down
32:30the bills are waiting trying to keep things normal for him i was barely holding it together
32:37so then henry started helping paying for treatments wouldn't take no for an answer and last week
32:43but rio got it all clear and the final thing henry said to me was that he didn't want a penny back
32:58do you get the sense henry was trying to atone for his actions saving that woman and her dog
33:05paying for baxter's kids health care i mean for a man who killed for a living he seemed to
33:10suddenly find a moral code in life detectives sorry there's something i need to tell you
33:19i wasn't sure whether to say anything close been great to me really but it was a few weeks ago
33:28flow was pretty out of it i tried to help her out to the sun and men like him
33:34always think they can get away with it she started muttering about henry she wasn't making a lot of
33:41sense i doubt she meant anything by it but it's been playing on my mind
33:49i told you there was a shot cut along fisherman's way i'm pretty sure you brought the sun barrier no no
33:56thank you for the memories oh i'll never know if it lived up to his hype
34:07sorry sarge makes me realize how long i've been away from saint marie
34:12come back expecting everything to be the same but things change right you don't regret coming back do
34:18your sarge no i couldn't stay in jamaica anymore it was right to leave do you miss him
34:29your ex no it just doesn't feel the same here you know that's all just getting used to it
34:38your ex no it's right come on let's go back to the station
34:57so
35:08let's try the back
35:14miss edwards oh hello apologies for the mess
35:23they come as a pair inspector
35:27not really my taste to be honest what he really means is he's not much of um an arts collector
35:34please they're fragile like your relationship with henry yeah your gardener told us about your
35:42drunken threats who knew i'd hired chatty kathy what did you mean when you said men like him always
35:51get away with it he tried it on with me didn't like being rejected it sounded like you wanted to
35:58punish him for more than just making a pass at you what aren't you telling us miss edwards all i'm
36:08guilty of detectives is bruising henry's delicate ego i don't believe you i think you knew exactly who
36:15he was didn't you i haven't the foggiest idea what you're talking about i saw someone on a moped outside
36:22henry's place that's who killed him did you ever catch them inspector i'd sleep much better knowing
36:28you did us too we'll be in touch
36:41first story isn't sitting right with me but she had an alibi baxter was with her in her house when henry ashby was shot
36:49and baxter's account checks out i spoke to the hospital everything he said about his son real
36:55it's true which brings us back to craig pinnock who has motive coming out of his ears but he also has
37:00an alibi for the murder so what you're saying is the three people who could have shot henry ashby
37:07couldn't have shot henry ashby exactly that inspector one laptop lab fresh fully decrypted now that's more
37:16like it i don't think so inspector you have somewhere to be if you haven't forgotten which i sense you have
37:23mrs desiree how about i give you a lift there make sure you don't get lost hmm maybe i should take this
37:31good luck inspector inspector
37:41inspector
37:41i bump into mrs desiree in church every now and then she makes the most superb ginger cake
37:55good for her you seem confused inspector well it's just that i thought you said she needed
38:03police assistance fixing her gate that's a handyman's job perhaps but if you hadn't realized
38:12the reason i asked you to do this was in the hope that you might learn something from it
38:20yeah yeah yeah i figured as much going that extra mile for the community improving police relationships
38:27et cetera et cetera actually this was more about you than my community initiative
38:35me inspector i know the last week or so has been tough on you
38:40and might have had you even thinking about why you stayed on on this island
38:49maybe look i'm not gonna lie okay now that solomon and i have parted ways yeah it has had me
38:56wondering which is perfectly understandable but hiding away avoiding people not being part of this island's life
39:07you're missing out yeah yeah i hear you but you know fixing some old lady's gate you really think
39:17that's the answer oh yes thank you i'll be right with you
39:26in answer to your question
39:29i suppose you'll find out inspector
39:38don't i get any iced tea
39:47the speeding tickets
39:49where them ketchup
39:51fisherman's way must have been when we were going to old man baptize
39:55i thought you said that camera was broken it's been taped off for months
39:59if it's working then maybe that's the route the killer took let's go
40:15inspector
40:16mrs desirée's gate bit back
40:23ah so
40:27spent half the night going through henry's laptop he was researching fleur social media
40:33old exhibitions personal records it doesn't sound like a crush no he was looking for a connection and now
40:40i know to watch

41:01she was like a sister must have been a shark when she died
41:10it didn't make sense
41:13a robbery nothing really taken and she'd never be caught up in anything dangerous
41:18so what did you do the day before it happened lucy told me she thought a man was following her
41:27it spooked her she she described him his height his build said he had a tattoo a winged horse on his
41:37forearm i told the police they dropped it but you never forgot and then years later you saw a news
41:46story henry saving a woman and her dog all of a sudden there he was so you tracked him down to
41:54saint marie casually moved in next door and then made nice i wanted to understand how someone like that
42:00could keep on living and when you couldn't understand you killed him in case you'd forgotten
42:05inspector i was making lemonade something i was about to offer you but i'm thinking better of it
42:10hang on so you're telling me the man who robbed lucy of her life was on your doorstep and you did zilch
42:16of course i wanted him to pay
42:19to see the shame in his eyes when he realized i knew who he was
42:23what he'd done but i never got the chance i didn't kill him lucy's husband is out here too
42:32craig's on saint marie
42:33bit of a coincidence don't you think you two turning up on the same island
42:39you knew he was here okay um the night before henry died i did see someone on a moped outside his house
42:51it looked like craig my heart almost stopped i told myself if it was him whatever he was up to
43:00i wanted nothing to do with it and then henry turned up dead
43:07i gave you the number plate hoping and praying that i was mistaken and that craig wasn't involved
43:19he's at the center of everything just never where we need him to be
43:22inspector you're gonna want to see this but we just checked the speed camera on fisherman's way
43:27and it caught something okay so this is about six minutes away from the victim's house 10 21 the
43:34morning of the murder just wait for it boom right this guy in a blacktop on a white moped with the
43:41same registration plate as the one craig pinnock hired so craig pinnock did it we now know he drove to
43:47the victim to the victim's house at the time of the murder wait why did the street vendor say he was
43:54buying coconut water when it happened okay let's play this out ds thomas you be the victim over there

44:10okay go yes bro just grabbing a coconut water now ain't it yeah i'll send over them figures soon
44:20definitely not gonna shoot nobody today remind me never to take your undercover
44:27that's it it's simple craig wasn't actually on a call he was pretending like officer rose was just now
44:35he made sure he was seen and heard so that when we asked the vendor we were told the story craig
44:41wanted us to hear not the truth the vendor never knew the time only that craig was on the phone
44:49confirmation by us exactly the real call was made at 10 30 but from somewhere else
44:55craig shot henry rode a short distance made the call as planned at 10 30. finally his alibi has crumbled
45:05i'm telling you i'm innocent you lied about your alibi and they want us to believe you okay yes
45:13i haven't been telling the truth but come on please you have to give me one more chance 30 seconds
45:20okay um so yes i went to henry's house and i took a gun i was working myself up to killing him okay i admit
45:29it but but then i heard a gunshot okay and i thought he'd see me i thought maybe he was shooting at me
45:34but i didn't stick around to find out i just i i got on the moped and i and i and i went away and
45:38i and i i didn't look back and this gun you're gone where is it now well i chucked it in the sea
45:45look i can show you exactly where please you have to believe me it wasn't me
45:52i believe it even though he's repeatedly lied to us throughout this investigation
46:04yep even though he admits to being at the victim's house at the time of the murder with a gun and a
46:10motive yep so if you think he didn't do it sir then who did having a scooby because it also can't be
46:18either of these and i'll tell you what's really bugging me about all this the victim's copy of
46:23this book was missing from his bookshelf and it hasn't turned up anywhere during the investigation
46:28so where is it wait you read the whole book in the last few days well i just speed read it so what
46:35was the story about well basically it's about a guy who tries to make things right and the only way
46:41he feels he can do that is if he well wait a minute
46:51because if you look at it that way that changes the whole perspective on everything
46:56a tale of true cities redemption hope the destructive nature of revenge do you get the
47:02sense henry was trying to atone for his actions trying to scare me who was loan sharks i'd started
47:08gambling and i had so much money and they were starting to hound me it's my son real he was
47:14diagnosed with hudskins lymphoma so then henry started helping paying for treatments wouldn't take
47:21no for an answer if i have to read a book i usually start at the last page first
47:25swear i've just had endings which would mean you worked it out i have and if i'm right about all
47:33this in a funny way the answer's been there the whole time the book yeah i think i know where it
47:41might be and that explains everything thanks charlie appreciate it
47:49ready
47:52ready boss
48:08second time lucky yeah
48:19A book, a gun, and a bullet.
48:49Let's start with this shall we? A tale of two cities. A story about redemption and sacrifice.
49:02And at the back of this book, Henry Ashby left a story of his own.
49:08The main character in this story, he dies in the end, but he gave up his life to atone for what he'd done.
49:16For a while, we were looking for a killer that was never there.
49:20Because Henry Ashby wasn't murdered. He took his own life.
49:27Henry's final words.
49:30A suicide note addressed to you, Miss Edwards, written in the back of the book.
49:35But also a confession to Lucy Pinnock's murder.
49:40But why would Henry take his own life? And why now?
49:46The past caught up with him.
49:49Fleur, you found the viral video, recognized Henry, and you shared it with Craig, didn't you?
49:56You finally found the man who murdered Lucy after all these years.
50:00But you didn't wait for Craig. You came out to St. Marie alone.
50:04You conveniently moved in next door to Henry.
50:08All this to get closer to the man who killed Lucy.
50:11And those drunken threats you aimed at Henry that the gardener witnessed.
50:16Henry hadn't tried it on with you at all, had he?
50:18What was eating away at you was the thought that this man had got away with murdering your best friend.
50:24So you insisted Craig fly to St. Marie.
50:30Henry was on to you, wasn't he?
50:33Something felt different.
50:35He seemed off with me, drove in silence.
50:40So you had to strike before he fled the island or did something even worse.
50:45And together you orchestrated your revenge.
50:49The plan was simple. Craig, you would arrive at Henry's place just before 10.30.
50:55You both arranged your alibis.
50:57Fleur, you knew Baxter would be at yours for his shift.
51:01And Craig, you arranged a work call that you'd take at 10.30 after you shot Henry,
51:07then made out that you were buying coconut water at the same time.
51:10But then something unexpected happened, didn't it?
51:13Because Henry worked out what you had in store for him.
51:17Craig, when you scoped out Henry's the night before his death,
51:21we believe Henry, as a trained killer, was watching you.
51:25Your actions, Craig, tipped Henry off that his time was up.
51:30The past, the guilt, it was all coming back to haunt him.
51:36And as a man who lived in control, he chose the only thing he felt he could still command.
51:42The ending to his own story.
51:47It's not the right way, but in his mind, it was the only option.
51:51So sometime before 10.30 the following morning, Henry shot himself.
51:57Fleur, you must have been confused had Craig arrived early.
52:03But when you found the body, you also found the book.
52:09And inside it, something you weren't expecting.
52:14The truth in a note left for you.
52:17And once you'd read it, you knew there and then that you couldn't let this die with him.
52:22So you proceeded to stage a crime scene to make it look like Henry had been murdered.
52:27You took his gun, the one thing he kept for protection given his past,
52:32and you left the doors wide open.
52:34You even scattered mud from the garden.
52:37Before firing a second gunshot at 10.30 from your kitchen,
52:41breaking a plant pot and creating a false time of death.
52:47A second bullet from a second gunshot,
52:50which you recovered from your garden later that morning.
52:53All that was left was to steer us toward the right culprit.
52:58The moped number plate was smooth.
53:00But why go to all that trouble?
53:07Her death haunted me most.
53:10Usually they had it coming, but not her.
53:15You see, that's what's so heartbreaking about it, isn't it, Craig?
53:19Because Lucy was a real victim here.
53:24And it's just as I suspected.
53:26I spent my life following orders.
53:29But this one was the cruelest.
53:32Your friend was an innocent woman.
53:34And you should know the truth.
53:36The hit was commissioned by her own husband.
53:41You see, the order didn't come from faceless loan sharks,
53:48but from you.
53:50You're the reason she's dead.
53:52I'm sorry, you've got this all wrong.
53:54When will you finally stop lying?
53:56You played the grieving husband, seeking revenge,
54:00when all you really wanted was silence.
54:03You hired Henry Ashby, a professional hitman,
54:06to stage a botched armed robbery
54:08so you could cash in your wife's life insurance
54:11and pay off your gambling debts.
54:13Fleur, I assume you held onto these?
54:20The book?
54:22The gun?
54:23Was your plan B?
54:25In case your plot to stitch up Craig was exposed?
54:29You framed him for Henry's murder
54:31because you couldn't go to the police
54:32without having to admit you and Craig planned to kill Henry.
54:36So, yeah.
54:40This confession will ensure Craig finally faces
54:43the murder charges for your best friend.
54:46However, I'm afraid your attempt to
54:48pervert the course of justice can't be overlooked.
54:53Craig Pinnock?
54:55I'm arresting you for conspiracies of murder.
55:01She loved you.
55:03And you sentenced her to death.
55:06I hope it haunts you for the rest of your life.
55:28So, as soon as Mervyn arrives, we'll be ready to go.
55:33May I ask?
55:35I'm sure he'll be here, sir.
55:38So, Sarge.
55:39I, um, did some digging
55:41and, uh, asking around.
55:44I got you this.
55:45The old man Baptiste's secret recipe.
55:51Err, as much as anyone could remember.
55:57That you might want to taste the home, you know.
55:59I just need to learn how to cook now.
56:02Now this will really burn your eyebrows off your face.
56:08Sorry. Sorry.
56:10Better late than never, Marvin.
56:13Go and stand beside the commissioner.
56:18Sorry I'm late, commissioner.
56:20I had a visitor.
56:22Mrs. Desiree dropped by.
56:24She made me a cake.
56:26Locking you.
56:27It's a nice cake as well.
56:30And yeah, I get it.
56:33Look out.
56:34Not in.
