Storyline

Shortly after the death of the father who regularly abused her, steely investigator Sharon Myers moves from the city back to the sleepy burg where she grew up. The morning after a class reunion, the body of a local teacher turns up, and all the evidence points to one Phillip Andrews, who'd had a brief affair with the victim. The only problem is, Phillip is married to Sharon's childhood best friend, Helen - and he's only just broken off yet another tempestuous affair, this one with Sharon herself. Carefully balancing her loyalty to Helen, her obsession with Phillip and the need to keep fellow detective Harry Fielding in the dark, Sharon covertly manipulates the investigation. Eventually, though, Harry and Phillip both begin to suspect that Sharon herself is the killer.

User Reviews

Very stylish whodunnit involving the eternal triangle.

I have Just watched it, really enjoyed it although i did guess the ending about half way through as the wife would confirm so it was a spoiler for her!!. It HAD to be good,i mean Paul McGann , Mark Benton & Sarah Parish in the cast to me means good. Won't comment on the plot as don't want to spoil it for anybody waiting to see it but i did stay with it for two hours, saving calls of nature for the commercial breaks which to me is a sign that i was hooked.It clashed with a BBC extravaganza about Krakatoa which is right up my street but i chose to record that and watch at a later date so i had an instinct that this was worth watching "live". I wasn't wrong, i.m.h.o.
