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?
03:54Oh, my God.
04:07Oh, my God.
04:08Oh, my God.
04:09Jeans down, relax your faces.
04:40In Paris we say, you don't take a photograph, you create it.
04:46Okay? You're really into this.
04:50It just makes a change to be in a photo where my head won't get cut off.
04:54Every family photo ever. You see me, from the shoulders, down.
04:59Shall we try your hand on your hip?
05:02Yes.
05:05Less like you've stepped on the sea urchin, more like you just heard the rums on the house.
05:14Morning, Commissioner.
05:16Where is Inspector Wilson?
05:20We did try, sir. He said he's only here short term, so didn't think it was his place.
05:27Also, apparently football is on.
05:29And presumably, the crime rate drops every time his team plays.
05:35One can only hope, sir.
05:38The whole point of this initiative is to make the wider community feel that we are all in this for them.
05:49To strengthen their trust in us.
05:53How are we going to begin to do that when our senior detective can't be bothered to turn up for a team photograph?
06:03He better make it to the launch this evening.
06:05Um, I should get that. Excuse me, sir.
06:16Come on. Just give me the second half.
06:20It's not even a big game.
06:26What?
06:27The Commissioner is seriously not happy you missed your close-up.
06:30Can't they just Photoshop me in?
06:32Something tells me he's not going to go for that.
06:35Is that what you came here for?
06:36No. There's been a shooting up in the hills.
06:48Stupid island.
06:52Victim's name is Henry Ashby, originally from the UK, moved to St. Marie ten years ago.
06:58What else do we know?
06:59Uh, his neighbour, Fleur Edwards, and her gardener, Baxter Turton, heard the shot around 10.30.
07:06When they arrived, the doors were wide open, and they saw someone on a white moped speeding off through the trees.
07:12Miss Edwards said she saw the same moped outside the house last night.
07:16He even got a registration number.
07:18Sergeant Fletcher is on the case.
07:20Oh.
07:22There's mud on the floor.
07:23No sign of a forced entry.
07:28So, either the victim let the killer in, or the killer let themself in from the garden, shot Henry, and pegged it back the same way.
07:39That's a serious tattoo, boss.
07:41Do I feel like I've seen it somewhere before?
07:44Yeah, it's Pegasus.
07:45Oh, the flying horse mutant thing.
07:49Something like that.
07:50And the bloke riding him is Bellerophon.
07:52He's part of the parachute regiment in Sid Meier.
07:54A mate of mine had one.
07:55He said the army trained him for anything.
07:59Which is why he now runs a soft plane Croydon.
08:04Yeah, he might be a military man, so let's check that out, shall we?
08:08Ten years on this island, and not even a vase in the gaff.
08:12A big read, as well.
08:14Yeah, man had a lot of books.
08:22Interesting.
08:23What is?
08:24This is a meticulously organised library.
08:27And he's filed his books alphabetically by author.
08:31Reading's never really been my thing, you know.
08:33But if I have to read a book, I usually start at the last page first.
08:38You know what I mean?
08:39Swerve the sad endings.
08:40Hang on.
08:42There's one missing.
08:44This section is Charles Dickens' novels.
08:48Pickwick Papers, Our Mutual Friend David Copperfield, etc.
08:51Where's one missing?
08:56Which one is it?
08:58I think it's tied to two cities.
09:01Yeah, it's definitely tied to two cities.
09:02Where can that have got to?
09:05Officer Rose, check the bedside table, yeah?
09:08He might have lent it to someone, or even lost it.
09:12I was taking up my boots.
09:27Then we both heard it.
09:29It's terrifying.
09:31I could feel it in my bones something awful had happened.
09:34We rushed straight over, but...
09:36We were too late.
09:37Next thing I know, I heard ties kicking up dirt.
09:41Couldn't get a look at the registration plate, but they were wearing a helmet and a black top.
09:46And you said you think you saw the same moped last night?
09:51I'm often up working late.
09:53From my studio, I can see Henry's.
09:56Someone was outside, lurking, peering through his windows.
10:00At first, I thought maybe it was the delivery driver.
10:05Wrong address.
10:06But something felt off, so I jotted the number plate down in my sketchbook.
10:12How long have you lived out here?
10:13Three months.
10:15Long enough to adore it.
10:17I needed space for my work to find inspiration, and...
10:22Look, of course, when I arrived, the garden was an absolute jungle.
10:27Hired me on the spot.
10:29Said the weeds were choking her genius.
10:32And Henry?
10:34Was he a good neighbor?
10:36He kept...
10:37Kept to himself.
10:38Didn't seem to want to get close.
10:40Still, he drove you into town on Fridays, right?
10:43Big shop day?
10:45That's the only thing on his calendar.
10:47He offered.
10:48I may have mentioned how tiresome I find driving.
10:51Having done it for years in London.
10:53And there's no Jubilee line on St. Marie, right?
10:56Quite.
10:58Anyone else ever stop by?
11:01Not that I know of.
11:03Flo is right.
11:04Mr. Asby wasn't much for company.
11:07For foot books?
11:08Yeah, speaking of which, did he ever lend you any?
11:12Tail of two cities, maybe?
11:15Dickens.
11:17Inspector?
11:19We'll be in touch.
11:21So that moped's from my rental outfit.
11:30More panglory.
11:31Just spoke to the owner, Winston.
11:33Bit of a relic.
11:34But he keep our good records, you know?
11:36Bottom line.
11:37Er, driver's a tourist from the UK.
11:39Arrived a week ago, but he provided an ID and a local address.
11:44Craig Pinnock.
11:45An accountant from Nunhead in London.
11:46Craig Pinnock.
11:55Want to step away from the bike, please?
11:59So, how can I help you, detectives?
12:02There's not a problem, is there?
12:03We need to establish your whereabouts this morning.
12:06Yeah, a fatal shooting just a few miles from here.
12:09A man called Henry Ashby was murdered.
12:12Do you know him?
12:14Well, no.
12:16Never heard of the guy.
12:18That's funny.
12:19A moped, just like the one you were scrubbing clean outside,
12:24was used to flee the scene.
12:25We also have evidence placing that same white moped
12:28and its driver outside the victim's house last night.
12:31What?
12:32Sorry.
12:34No, there must be some mistake.
12:35I, um...
12:37Look, I didn't shoot anyone.
12:40How do we clear this up?
12:42Let's start from the beginning, yeah?
12:46Last night,
12:47why was your moped seen outside the victim's villa up in the hills?
12:53Right.
12:53Okay.
12:54So I may have driven past that house last night,
12:57but only because I took a wrong turn.
12:59I was, um...
13:00I was looking for a property,
13:02a villa that I'd seen online,
13:03and, um,
13:05I thought there might be somebody in to point me in the right direction,
13:07but no answer.
13:09You were looking for a house for sale?
13:12After dark?
13:13Yes.
13:14I mean,
13:15it was supposed to have beautiful sunset views,
13:17and, um...
13:18Well, I'm looking to buy out here.
13:20Remote accounting,
13:21best dress.
13:23So you were at the victim's villa,
13:24but you never interacted with him?
13:27No.
13:27No, absolutely not.
13:28What about in the morning?
13:32It was definitely my moped that was seen.
13:34Our witnesses didn't get a registration,
13:36but the description matches.
13:38And the rider was wearing a black top.
13:43Okay, so I can see now why you might think it was me,
13:46but it wasn't.
13:48So it was just coincidence.
13:51Someone else was there this morning,
13:53dressed just like you,
13:54on a similar white moped,
13:56outside the same property you were visiting last night.
13:59Must be.
14:01That's bizarre, isn't it?
14:03But I can assure you, detectives,
14:05that I was nowhere near that house.
14:07Then, where were you 10.30 when the shooting happened?
14:11Well, in coconut water.
14:13There's a street bender,
14:14and I'd stopped to make a work call.
14:16Felt thirsty,
14:17and this was definitely 10.30.
14:19Where was this?
14:20Crescent Cove.
14:23The opposite side of the island to the crime scene.
14:27Convenient?
14:28Convenient?
14:29Now, look, you've got the wrong person.
14:32I didn't shoot anyone.
14:32Check my phone.
14:34We will.
14:37Thank you for your help.
14:38We'll be in touch if we need anything further.
14:41Well, the vendor confirms he served Craig this morning,
14:44and he was on his phone the whole time.
14:46That's why he remembers him.
14:48Craig's client also confirms
14:50they spoke at 15.30 UK time,
14:52which is 10.30 here.
14:54They spoke for five minutes,
14:56and it all tallies with the call-off on Craig's phone.
14:58But it has to be Craig that shot Henry Ashby.
15:01His clothing was identified,
15:03and the bike,
15:04and he was outside Henry's the night before.
15:07And you saw what it was like at the villa.
15:09It was all over the place.
15:09But he has an alibi for the time of the murder, sir.
15:13So if it was him,
15:14then how did he do it?
15:16Craig's definitely holding back.
15:32So if we don't yet know
15:33how he managed to shoot Henry Ashby,
15:36let's focus on his motive.
15:38Why did he do it?
15:43Sergeant Fletcher.
15:45What have you got for us?
15:46Inspector?
15:48Bit of a development at Henry's.
15:51Seems there's a little more to him
15:52than we first thought.
15:57A spy.
15:58I'm telling you,
15:59he has to be a spy.
16:01Henry was definitely mixed up in something murky.
16:04Surveillance, perhaps?
16:05A spy.
16:06A hundred percent.
16:08I'm talking code names.
16:10You know?
16:10Drop-off locations.
16:11Secret hand shares.
16:13Exploding pens.
16:14His military records came in.
16:16Henry rose through the ranks quickly
16:18before a voluntary discharge 15 years ago.
16:22Then, nothing.
16:23No paper trail,
16:24no fixed address.
16:26Vanished.
16:27Until...
16:28St. Marie.
16:29What about his phone?
16:31Zero phone calls.
16:32The man had nobody checking in.
16:34I mean, it's like you just totally ghosted life.
16:37And his laptop?
16:39Locked down tight.
16:41But I've asked the lab and they're checking it out.
16:43But his bank account?
16:46Stucked.
16:46Living off-grid with serious money behind him.
16:49Makes you wonder who or what was he running from.
16:53I've got a mate in Organized Crime Command.
16:56I'll give her a call, see if what we've found triggers anything her in.
16:59But let's keep looking into Craig Pinnock.
17:02Now we know that the victim isn't what he seems,
17:06there must be a reason Craig wanted him dead.
17:07It's time we headed over to the Commissioner's launch.
17:12Ready, sir?
17:13Uh, I'll catch you up.
17:14I've got this phone call to make first.
17:16Okay.
17:19See you there.
17:21Don't be late.
17:28You know, Commissioner asked us to say a few words about
17:31what St. Marie means to us.
17:34And I was like, man, I mean, where do I start, you know?
17:39So what did you go for?
17:40Officer Rose's top ten favorite places to fill your belly.
17:45Okay.
17:47Do you think that's quite what the Commissioner...
17:49Hmm?
17:51You know what?
17:52That is perfect.
17:56You all right?
17:59Big crowds.
18:01It tends to happen when you offer free snacks.
18:04The Inspector's cutting it fine.
18:06We want to be in his booth when he arrives.
18:10It's a wonderful turn out, don't you think?
18:14What are 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.
18:36You know the one with the sweet, sweet curry goat?
18:39The one where the chef sings love songs as he cooks.
18:42I'm actually thinking about starting my own food tour.
18:46So at the end, open to invest that.
18:47We can speak.
18:49Thank you for that enthusiasm.
18:51Officer Rose.
18:56And thank you for coming, everyone.
19:02Tonight is a new beginning.
19:05Since returning to St. Marie, I have been made aware that I need to recommit, to reassure you that this island still matters to me, to us.
19:24And you, its people, matter even more.
19:30This is the first step, rebuilding trust, strengthening the relationship between myself and my team, and you, the people we serve.
19:44Um, we will proceed with a Q and A as planned.
19:55First questions, please.
19:57Yes, I've got a question.
19:59Why did the detective not bother showing up?
20:03Um, well, um...
20:09Um, actually, Commissioner, um, can I take this one?
20:15Of course.
20:27D.I. Wilson's not here because he's working on a murder case.
20:32And knowing him, he's probably so deep into it, he hasn't realized the time.
20:41But that's because he cares about his work.
20:45All of us, standing here, care so much about what we do.
20:49It's not just about solving crimes.
20:52It's about doing it right.
20:55And that's why we show up.
20:56Because it's not just what we do, it's, it's who we are.
21:12Thank you, now.
21:16Next question.
21:19So, two Sergeant Thomas, they're busting it.
21:22Look, look who arrives just in time for the clean-up.
21:28Look, I'm late, I know.
21:30The good news is there's no more speeches.
21:32But the bad news, no more snacks.
21:33The Commissioner left ten minutes ago, and he said he's very disappointed but not surprised.
21:38Direct quotes.
21:39Stop talking!
21:41Look, I've got some major intel on our victim, alright?
21:44I mean, it all makes total sense now.
21:46The military background, the fake passports, living off-grid.
21:50I mean, I should have worked this out before.
21:52Worked out what?
21:53He was a spy.
21:54No officer rose.
21:56Henry Ashby was a professional hitman.
22:04So, multiple passports were found in the victim's house.
22:07I don't believe it.
22:09Why is it so hard to get a book out of the library?
22:11Inspector, you do still work here?
22:14Yeah.
22:15Commissioner, look, I'm sorry about last night, but I was doing what I thought was best for the case.
22:21Disappearing in the name of duty is still disappearing.
22:25I made my expectations very clear.
22:29Yes, Commissioner, I'm sorry.
22:31It 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.
22:42Right, are we done?
22:44No.
22:45No.
22:46You will make amends with some community outreach work.
22:50Mrs. Desiree, one of our most senior residents, was in attendance last night.
22:56She told me she was in need of a little police assistance.
23:00I said, I would pay her a visit.
23:05That is her address.
23:10A tale of two cities.
23:14Have you read it before?
23:16I know, but I used to work weekends with a guy who ran Dickens Tours.
23:21Like all his best, redemption, hope, the destructive nature of revenge.
23:27Not a million miles from this case.
23:30Well, DS Thomas was updating me.
23:32Your victim is a hitman.
23:34Yeah, organised crime linked Henry Ashby to a shelved case.
23:39He's the prime suspect in a historic hit job in Putney.
23:42Made to look like a break-in.
23:44The victim was a shop owner with ties to loan sharks.
23:46Henry made it look like a break-in?
23:49The theory goes, Henry's the guy you call in when things get heavy.
23:52There's other suspected hits, but the evidence is non-existent.
23:55I went through the victim's bank statements, Commissioner.
23:58There were years of large cash deposits.
24:01No employer, just drops.
24:03Why did they never catch him?
24:04I expect because he was good at his job.
24:06All they had on the guy was some grainy CCTV footage and the description of a very distinctive tattoo.
24:12Pegasus!
24:13Look, I still feel like I've seen that tattoo somewhere before, you know.
24:17I'm just not sure where.
24:22So, I did some digging into our suspect, Craig Pinnock.
24:27Turns out, Craig's a widower.
24:30This was his wife, Lucy Pinnock, died ten years ago on the 2nd of July.
24:35So?
24:36She was shot.
24:38A home-breaking gone wrong.
24:40No suspect, no motive.
24:42Just a robbery turned fatal.
24:45Two robberies, two deaths, same M.O.
24:48Well, that's no coincidence.
24:49And here, three days before Lucy's death.
24:52The last cash drop.
24:53So, if Henry was a contract killer and Lucy Pinnock was one of his last jobs, then...
25:01Craig Pinnock suddenly has really good motive to want Henry Ashby dead.
25:07They were trying to scare me.
25:11Who was?
25:13Loan sharks.
25:13I'd started gambling and, um...
25:17Told myself I could get her under control, but I owed so much money.
25:20And they were starting to hound me.
25:22And when they came to collect what you owed them, you didn't have it.
25:26And your wife was collateral.
25:29I hate myself every day for what they did to her.
25:33For what I caused.
25:36But you didn't tell the police.
25:39Must have been eating you up alive inside.
25:41The shame.
25:43The guilt.
25:43The rage.
25:44And so you decided you'd hunt down Henry Ashby yourself.
25:47I knew that the police would never find him.
25:50Because they didn't know the full truth.
25:52That it was a professional hit.
25:54Not an easy job.
25:56I mean, the trail was cold, wasn't it?
25:58For years.
25:59The killer was hiding out here, on St. Marie.
26:03How did you find Henry?
26:05Well, to people I owed money to, I did some digging.
26:09Eventually, I found out who they paid to do their dirty work.
26:13So, you knew exactly who Henry was.
26:17And you came anyway.
26:20If there was a chance, I could look him in the eye.
26:23Get him to answer for what he did.
26:24So, revenge.
26:25That was your plan.
26:27You knew exactly whose house you were at that night.
26:30Okay, look.
26:30I admit, I went there to confront him.
26:33But I never laid eyes on him.
26:34He wasn't there.
26:35You went back the next morning to finish the job.
26:37No.
26:38I've already told you this.
26:39I was on the other side of the island.
26:42Look, whoever went there that morning to shoot him, it was someone else.
26:45It wasn't me.
26:47Something wrong, Officer Rose?
26:56Or are you just exercising your thumb muscles?
26:58Hey, I'm working, actually.
27:00I had to scroll through this group chat to find this video.
27:03Although, I did briefly get sidetracked by this chicken we're in Carnival.
27:06Please, bring it around the bush some more, Officer Rose.
27:08Sir, that tattoo.
27:10You know how I thought I recognized it from somewhere?
27:13Boom.
27:13Three months ago.
27:14Henry saved a woman who was caught up in a riptide out at Churchill Bay.
27:20He did no photos, no press.
27:22But somebody filmed it and the video went viral.
27:25The man went in twice.
27:29Once for the old lady, once for the little dog.
27:32I printed these off.
27:34You can see the Pegasus tattoo in boat.
27:36So we have a trained assassin who saves poodles in his spare time.
27:39But it means literally anybody looking for Henry Ashby could have seen that video and come to the island for revenge.
27:48All right, so maybe someone else on a white moped, wearing a black top, did go to Henry Ashby's place that morning and shoot him.
27:59Okay, we're going to have to check all routes to the woods behind Henry's place and any road cameras along the way.
28:04We should also look into who else knew Henry.
28:07Mm-hmm.
28:08Got it.
28:18It's me.
28:26The police are going to want to talk to me.
28:29But I don't want you to worry.
28:38Still no jaya with a moped?
28:40No sign of anyone else on a white bike who could have possibly shot Henry.
28:45What's about fisherman's wear?
28:47Hey, it's the fastest route to the house.
28:49The only camera along there has been busted for weeks.
28:52So it's the perfect time for lunch.
28:54Cold case, hot prawns.
28:57No, seriously, you have to try one of these.
28:59Captain Crustacean's firecracker prawns.
29:02But thank you.
29:03But if you want real flavor, ooh, you got to go to Old Man Baptiste behind the cricket ground.
29:10My father used to take us after school.
29:12Baptiste had this secret marinade.
29:15Legendary.
29:15All right, take your time.
29:18They're spicy.
29:23Oh, man, it's got a little bit of a kick.
29:27Oh, are you okay?
29:30All right.
29:31If we're speedy, we'll make it to Old Man Baptiste before he shots.
29:34We need milk.
29:39Interesting.
29:39Listen, 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.
29:58That's okay, sir.
30:00I, uh...
30:01I know you're maybe not feeling like yourself at the moment.
30:07Yeah, well, um, it's, uh, it's not been the best few weeks, finding their brother, then him going away again.
30:17But, you know, mate, I don't let those things get to me, right?
30:23Right.
30:23No, sure you don't.
30:27What?
30:27Well, we haven't seen you much in the last week, sir.
30:34All you do is stay in your shack and watch football.
30:37I like football.
30:39I know.
30:40But it's a lot of football.
30:45Yeah, well, there's a lot of games.
30:47Listen, let's just focus on the case.
30:49What have you got?
30:52Actually, those weekly shopping trips Henry used to take, he was pulling out $500 like clockwork.
31:02That'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.
31:12Baxter.
31:16Henry was bankrolling Fleur's gardener.
31:19Why?
31:20Well, doesn't look like it was for fertilizer.
31:25Harsh money.
31:27Maybe.
31:28But the payment stopped.
31:30One was due Friday.
31:32Never came.
31:34And a couple of days later, Henry's dead.
31:44It's true.
31:48Henry.
31:49He gave me money.
31:52But you never thought to mention it.
31:56Why was he paying you?
31:59He said it wasn't charity.
32:02He had money sitting there, doing nothing.
32:04We're not talking about a few bobby, Mr. Turton.
32:07This is thousands.
32:08It sounds a lot to me like leverage, extortion.
32:13No, no, no.
32:13That's not what it was.
32:14I would never.
32:15He stops paying you.
32:16You get angry, decide to punish him.
32:18And that's why you...
32:19Henry's son.
32:19My son.
32:19My son.
32:20Rio.
32:22He was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma.
32:26He caught it early, but he still turned everything upside down.
32:30The bills are waiting, trying to keep things normal for him.
32:34I was barely holding it together.
32:36So then Henry started helping, paying for treatments.
32:41Wouldn't take no for an answer.
32:43And last week, Rio got it all clear.
32:46And 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?
33:03Saving that woman and her dog?
33:05Paying for Baxter's kids' health care?
33:08I mean, for a man who killed for a living, he seemed to suddenly find a moral code in life.
33:13Detectives.
33:15Sorry.
33:16There's something I need to tell you.
33:19I wasn't sure whether to say anything.
33:22Fleur's been great to me, really.
33:24But...
33:25It was a few weeks ago.
33:28Fleur's pretty out of it.
33:30I tried to help her out of the sun, and...
33:33Men like him always think they can get away with it.
33:37She started muttering about Henry.
33:40She wasn't making a lot of sense.
33:42I doubt she meant anything by it.
33:44But it's been playing on my mind.
33:46I told you there was a shot cut along Fisherman's Way.
33:52I'm pretty sure you broke the sun barrier.
33:54No.
33:56No.
33:56Thank you for the memories.
34:01Oh, I'll never know if it lived up to his hype.
34:06Sorry, Sarge.
34:08Makes me realise how long I've been away from St. Marie.
34:12Come back expecting everything to be the same.
34:15That things change, right?
34:17You don't regret coming back, do you, Sarge?
34:19No.
34:20I couldn't stay in Jamaica anymore.
34:22It was right to leave.
34:26Do you miss him?
34:29Your ex?
34:31No.
34:32It just doesn't feel the same here, you know?
34:35That's all.
34:36Just getting used to it.
34:43Right, come on.
34:44Let's go back to the station.
34:45Let's try the back.
35:09Miss Edwards.
35:16Oh, hello.
35:18Apologies for the mess.
35:23They come as a pair, Inspector.
35:26Not really my taste, to be honest.
35:29What he really means is
35:31he's not much of an arts collector.
35:36Please, they're fragile.
35:38Like your relationship with Henry.
35:40Yeah, your gardener told us about your drunken threats.
35:44Who knew I'd hired chatty Cathy?
35:47What did you mean when you said
35:49men like him always get away with it?
35:54He tried it on with me.
35:55Didn't like being rejected.
35:57It sounded like you wanted to punish him
35:58for more than just making a pass at you.
36:00What aren't you telling us, Miss Edwards?
36:07All I'm guilty of, detectives,
36:09is bruising Henry's delicate ego.
36:12I don't believe you.
36:14I think you knew exactly who he was.
36:16Didn't you?
36:17I haven't the foggiest idea
36:19what you're talking about.
36:20I saw someone on a moped
36:22outside Henry's place.
36:23That's who killed him.
36:25Did you ever catch them, Inspector?
36:26I'd sleep much better knowing you did.
36:29Us too.
36:31We'll be in touch.
36:41Fleur's story isn't sitting right with me.
36:44But she had an alibi.
36:45Baxter was with her in her house
36:47when Henry Ashby was shot.
36:49And Baxter's account checks out.
36:52I spoke to the hospital.
36:53Everything he said about his son real
36:55is true.
36:56Which brings us back to Craig Pinnock,
36:58who has motive coming out of his ears,
37:00but he also has an alibi for the murder.
37:02So, what you're saying is
37:04the three people who could have shot Henry Ashby
37:06couldn't have shot Henry Ashby.
37:09Exactly that.
37:10Inspector, one laptop, lab fresh, fully decrypted.
37:15Now, that's more like it.
37:16I don't think so, Inspector.
37:18You have somewhere to be
37:20if you haven't forgotten,
37:21which I sense you have.
37:24Mrs. Desiree,
37:25how about I give you a lift there?
37:27Make sure you don't get lost.
37:29Hmm?
37:30Maybe I should take this.
37:38Good luck, Inspector.
37:41Inspector!
37:41Inspector!
37:41I bump into Mrs. Desiree
37:47in church every now and then.
37:51She makes the most superb ginger cake.
37:56Good for her.
37:57You seem confused, Inspector.
38:00Well, it's just that I thought you said
38:02she needed police assistance.
38:05Fixing her gate,
38:06that's a handyman's job.
38:09Perhaps.
38:10But if you hadn't realised
38:12the reason I asked you to do this
38:15was in the hope that you might
38:17learn something from it.
38:20Yeah.
38:21Yeah, I figured as much.
38:23Going that extra mile for the community,
38:25improving police relationships,
38:27et cetera, et cetera.
38:28Actually,
38:30this was more about you
38:31than my community initiative.
38:35Me?
38:36Inspector,
38:37I know
38:38the last week or so
38:39has been tough on you
38:40and might
38:42have had you
38:43even thinking about
38:44why you stayed on
38:45on this island.
38:48Maybe.
38:50Look,
38:51I'm not going to lie,
38:52OK?
38:52Now that Solomon and I
38:54have parted ways,
38:55yeah,
38:56it has had me wondering.
38:57which is
38:58perfectly understandable.
39:01But
39:02hiding away,
39:04abonding people,
39:06not being part of
39:06this island's life,
39:08you're missing out.
39:12Yeah, yeah,
39:12I hear you.
39:14But,
39:14you know,
39:15fixing some old lady's gate,
39:17you really think
39:18that's the answer?
39:18Tea, Commissioner?
39:19Oh, yes.
39:21I'll be right with you.
39:22In answer to your question,
39:27I suppose
39:30you'll find out,
39:32Inspector.
39:38Don't I get any iced tea?
39:39I'll get it.
39:41It's been in tickets.
39:48Where are them ketchup?
39:50Fisherman's way.
39:52Must have been when we were going to Old Man Baptiste.
39:55I thought you said that camera was broken.
39:57It's been taped off for months.
40:05If it's working, then maybe that's the route the killer took.
40:08Let's go.
40:11Inspector.
40:20Mrs. Desiree's gate bit back.
40:23Ah.
40:24So.
40:27Spent half the night going through Henry's laptop.
40:30He was researching FLIR, social media, old exhibitions, personal records.
40:35It doesn't sound like a crush.
40:37No.
40:38I was looking for a connection.
40:39And now, I know to what.
40:44FLIR and Lucy Pinnock were housemates.
40:47Same university.
40:48Seemed super close.
40:50Lucy was using her maiden name.
40:52So, three months ago, FLIR moves in next door to the man who killed her best friend.
40:57And now he's dead.
40:58She was like a sister.
40:59Must have been a shark when she died.
41:00It didn't make sense.
41:01A robbery.
41:02Nothing really taken.
41:03And she'd never be caught up in anything dangerous.
41:04So, what did you do?
41:05The day before it happened, Lucy told me she thought a man was following her.
41:12It spooked her.
41:13She...
41:14She described him.
41:15His height.
41:16His build.
41:17Said he had a tattoo.
41:18A winged horse on his forearm.
41:19I told the police.
41:20They dropped it.
41:21But you never forgot.
41:22And then, years later, you saw a news story.
41:32Henry saving a woman and her dog.
41:36All of a sudden, there he was.
41:38You never forgot.
41:39And then, years later, you saw a news story.
41:43Henry saving a woman and her dog.
41:46All of a sudden, there he was.
41:49All of a sudden there he was
41:52So you tracked him down to st. Marie casually moved in next door and then made nice
41:57I wanted to understand how someone like that could
42:01Keep on living and when you couldn't understand you killed him in case you'd forgotten inspector
42:06I was making lemonade something. I was about to offer you, but I'm thinking better of it
42:11Hang on so you're telling me the man who robbed Lucy of her life was on your doorstep and you did zilch of course
42:16I wanted him to pay
42:19To see the shame in his eyes when he realized I knew who he was what he'd done, but I'd never got the chance
42:25I didn't kill him
42:29Lucy's husband is out here too
42:32Craig's on st. Marie bit of a coincidence. Don't you think you two turning up on the same island?
42:39You knew he was here
42:43Okay, um
42:45The night before henry died. I did see someone on a moped outside his house
42:51It looked like craig
42:54My heart almost stopped I told myself
42:57If it was him whatever he was up to I wanted nothing to do with it
43:03And then henry turned up dead I
43:05I gave you the number plate
43:09Hoping and praying that I was mistaken
43:12And that craig wasn't involved
43:14He's at the center of everything just never where we need him to be
43:21Inspector, you're gonna want to see this but we just checked the speed camera on Fisherman's way
43:26And it caught something
43:28Okay, so this is about six minutes away from the victim's house
43:32Ten twenty one the morning of the murder
43:34Just wait for it
43:36Boom right this up guy in a blacktop on a white moped with the same registration plate as the one craig pinnock hired
43:43So craig pinnock did it. We now know he drove to the victim's house at the time of the murder
43:48Wait, why did the street vendor say he was buying coconut water when it happened?
43:55Okay, let's play this out DS Thomas you be the victim over there, please
44:03Um, officer Rose you be craig just there and sergeant Fletcher you be the vendor
44:09Right, uh, phone?
44:13Okay, go
44:14Yes, bro. Just grabbing a coconut water now, innit?
44:17Yeah, I'll send over them figures soon
44:20Definitely not gonna shoot nobody today
44:22Remind me never to take your underwear
44:24That's it
44:27It's simple
44:29Craig wasn't actually on a call
44:31He was pretending like officer Rose was just now
44:34He made sure he was seen and heard so that when we asked the vendor
44:38We were told the story craig wanted us to hear
44:42Not the truth
44:43The vendor never knew the time only that craig was on the phone
44:48Confirmation by us
44:49Exactly
44:50The real call was made at 10 30
44:52But from somewhere else
44:54Craig shot Henry
44:55Yes
44:56Road a short distance
44:57Made the call as planned at 10 30
44:59Finally, his alibi has crumbled
45:02I'm telling you I'm innocent
45:05You lied about your alibi and they want us to believe you
45:10Okay, yes, I haven't been telling the truth but come on please you have to give me one more chance
45:1730 seconds
45:1930 seconds
45:20Okay, so yes, I went to Henry's house and I took a gun
45:25I was working myself up to killing him, okay? I admit it
45:29But then I heard a gunshot, okay? And I thought he'd see me
45:32I thought maybe he was shooting at me
45:34But I didn't stick around to find out
45:36I just I got on the moped and I went away and I didn't look back
45:40And this gun, your gun, where is it now?
45:43Well, I chucked it in the sea
45:45Look, I can show you exactly where
45:47Please, you have to believe me
45:50It wasn't me!
45:52I believe it
45:59Even though he's repeatedly lied to us throughout this investigation
46:03Yep
46:04Even though he admits to being at the victim's house at the time of the murder
46:08With a gun
46:09And a motive
46:10Yep
46:11So, if you think he didn't do it, sir
46:13Then
46:14Who did?
46:15Having a scooby
46:16Because it also can't be either of these
46:18And I'll tell you what's really bugging me about all this
46:20The victim's copy of this book was missing from his bookshelf
46:25And it hasn't turned up anywhere during the investigation
46:27So, where is it?
46:29Wait, you read the whole book in the last few days?
46:31Well, I just speed read it
46:33So, what was the story about?
46:36Well, basically it's about a guy who tries to make things right
46:40And the only way he feels he can do that is if he...
46:43Well, wait a minute
46:48Because if you look at it that way
46:53That changes the whole perspective on everything
46:56A tear-off from cities
46:58Redemption
46:59Warp
47:00The destructive nature of revenge
47:02Do you get the sense Henry was trying to atone for his actions?
47:05They were trying to scare me
47:06Who was?
47:07I'd started gambling and I had so much money and they were starting to hound me
47:12It's my son
47:13Real
47:14He was diagnosed with Hudge Skins lymphoma
47:16So then Henry started helping, paying for treatments
47:20Wouldn't take no for an answer
47:22If I have to read a book
47:23I usually start at the last page first
47:25So I've decided endings
47:27Which would mean...
47:29You worked it out
47:30I have
47:32And if I'm right about all this
47:34In a funny way
47:36The answer's been there the whole time
47:38The book?
47:39Yeah
47:40I think I know where it might be
47:42And that explains everything
47:47Thanks Charlie
47:48Appreciate it
47:52Ready boss?
47:53Second time look here
48:09Second time look here
48:23A book
48:35A gun
48:40And a bullet
48:41Let's start with this shall we?
48:55A tale of two cities
48:58A story about redemption
49:00And sacrifice
49:02And at the back of this book
49:04Henry Ashby left a story of his own
49:08The main character in this story
49:10He dies in the end
49:11But
49:12He gave up his life
49:13To atone
49:14For what he'd done
49:16For a while
49:17We were looking for a killer
49:18That was never there
49:20Because Henry Ashby
49:22Wasn't murdered
49:24He took his own life
49:27Henry's final words
49:30A suicide note addressed to you Miss Edwards
49:32Written in the back of the book
49:35But also a confession
49:37To Lucy Pinnock's murder
49:40But why would Henry take his own life?
49:44And why now?
49:46The past caught up with him
49:49Fleur, you found the viral video
49:52Recognized Henry
49:54And you shared it with Craig, didn't you?
49:56You finally found the man
49:58Who murdered Lucy after all these years
50:01But you didn't wait for Craig
50:02You came out to Saint Marie alone
50:04You conveniently moved in next door to Henry
50:09All this to get closer to the man who killed Lucy
50:12And those drunken threats you aimed at Henry
50:15That the gardener witnessed
50:16Henry hadn't tried it on with you at all, had he?
50:19What was eating away at you
50:21Was the thought that this man
50:23Had got away with murdering your best friend
50:24So you insisted Craig fly to Saint Marie?
50:29Henry was onto 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
50:43Or did something even worse?
50:45And together, you orchestrated your revenge
50:49The plan was simple
50:51Craig, you would arrive at Henry's place just before 10.30
50:55You both arranged your alibis
50:58Fleur, you knew Baxter would be at yours for his shift
51:01And Craig, you arranged a work call
51:04That you'd take a 10.30 after you shot Henry
51:07Then made out that you were buying coconut water at the same time
51:11But then something unexpected happened, didn't it?
51:12Because Henry worked out what you had in store for him
51:17Craig, when you sculpted 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
51:39He chose the only thing he felt he could still command
51:43The ending to his own story
51:48It's not the right way
51:50But in his mind, it was the only option
51:52So sometime before 10.30 the following morning
51:55Henry shot himself
52:00Fleur, you must have been confused
52:02Had 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
52:18And once you'd read it, you knew there and then that you couldn't let this die with him
52:21So you proceeded to stage a crime scene to make it look like Henry had been murdered
52:28You 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
52:43A second bullet from a second gunshot
52:50Which you recovered from your garden later that morning
52:54All 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
53:09Usually they had it coming
53:12But 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
53:23And it's just as I suspected
53:26I spent my life following orders
53:29But this one was the cruelest
53:31Your 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
53:53I'm sorry, you've got this all wrong
53:55When will you finally stop lying?
53:57You played the grieving husband, seeking revenge
54:00When all you really wanted was silence
54:02You 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?
54:19The book?
54:21The gun?
54:23Was your plan B?
54:25In case your plot to stitch up Craig was exposed?
54:27You framed him for Henry's murder because you couldn't go to the police without having to admit you and Craig planned to kill Henry
54:36So, yeah
54:38This confession will ensure Craig finally faces the murder charges for your best friend
54:45However, I'm afraid your attempt to pervert the course of justice can't be overlooked
54:51Craig Pinnock, I'm arresting you for conspiracies of murder
54:58She loved you, and you sentenced her to death
55:05I hope it haunts you for the rest of your life
55:08The rest of your life
55:28So, as soon as Mervyn arrives we'll be ready to go
55:31May I ask?
55:34I'm sure he'll be here, sir
55:37So, Sarge
