I write as someone who once whilst in working life received a letter from downing street (not written by a Prime Minister-but the other half!) which read along the lines of "you stupid yorkshireman you really dont have a clue who you are dealing with" - this whilst chasing money for the company I worked for!....Here we have a murder investigation without a happy ending involving corruption within the house of Lords where people are murdered in cold blood and the killer(s) get away with it. Lynley proves how poor a detective he is in this by managing to lose all his evidence and cannot prove anyone guilty. If thats your idea of entertainment - please watch, but it isnt mind. Perhaps, if those in the House of Lords are corrupt it may well be better that we dont know, given we are now in 2021 and dishonesty in politics is more prevalent that in previous times.
