As Commander Dalgliesh investigates the death of Neville Dupayne. His team come across another murder. A body found in a trunk. Again it mirrors a past crime.

The suspects are lining up thick and fast. Dalgliesh finds out that Neville was adopted. Neville got a wayward lad a job as a gardener. He has a past of stealing cars, even burning one out.

Dalgliesh also finds out that one of the rooms was used as a sex club for the rich and the privileged.

Then there is the case of keeping things discreet as a member of staff at the museum has links with the secret service.

After a slow first episode, it picked up in the second. The denouement came as a bit of a disappointment to me.

However this was such a badly paced story. Slow and lacking elan.

Martin Shaw seems to be playing a generic detective, rather than a character who was popular in a long running television series for a number of years, when he was played by another actor.
