Storyline

Rob, unmoored by Cassie's absence, is obsessed with Jonathan Devlin and convinced he and his childhood friend Cathal Mills may be dangerous paedophiles. He is desperate to find the one witness to the events in the woods in 1985 who he hasn't spoken to - itinerate ex-friend of Jonathan and Cathal's, Shane Waters - but Shane, a homeless drug addict, hasn't been seen since Katy was found on that altar.

User Reviews

It's getting darker and more intricate, but I'm gripped.

Cassie agrees to work with Frank, in an ambitious plot to pose as Lexie. Rob Faces huge pressure as the press begin to search for Adam.

Very good again, although it's going in an even darker direction, there are all sorts of dark undertones. The acting is absolutely top notch, particularly impressed with Tom Vaughan Lawlor who plays Frank, and Barry O'Connor who plays Cathan.

The music is haunting, the production values are particularly strong. It's all very complex, but it's engrossing. 8/10
