Who'll do it?

Three episodes in and this series is starting to grow on me, I don't think it will ever be great but it is certainly better than I feared it was going to be. This time none of the team appear in any of the pictures but the plans to keep Ben in the dark about last week's picture of him didn't last very long and he isn't too pleased that he wasn't warned that his life was in such danger.

This week's images appear to point to a woman being murdered in the city and once again the team have limited time to save her. The photographs lead them to a local nightclub but their have no way of knowing if they indicate the victim or the assailant is connected with the place. Their chief suspect is a known rapist but they are having a hard time tracking him down and even if they could find him they don't have any evidence that he will offend again.

I think this episode was the strongest of the three so far, it was helped by having two or three possible suspects rather than just trying to find where they had to be to prevent something bad happening.. there was of course a bit of that but the main mystery was who not where. The creators must have realised they'd made King too creepy in the opening episode as in this and last week's programme he has been far less creepy and thus less annoying.
