- Synopsis:
Based on the best-selling novels of Elizabeth George, 'The Inspector Lynley Mysteries' find Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley (also known as the 8th Earl of Asherton) and Detective Sergeant Barbara Havers (Sharon Small) solving cases of murder that would challenge the savviest of detectives. Divided by class barriers both real and imagined, but united in their efforts to uncover the truth, Lynley (Nathaniel Parker) and Havers form an unlikely yet successful sleuthing duo. Lynley's marriage has risen from the ashes, and a happier man faces the world. But he's about to confront the dark, destructive side of nature once again.
1. Natural CausesSince Lynley's suspension for threatening a suspect, Havers has been without a partner. She begins a new case alongside the no-nonsense, pregnant DI Knight (Liza Tarbuck) investigating the murder of a young girl. Lynley begins to help with their investigations, but with the discovery of another body and a kidnapping, will Lynley's involvement jeopardise his efforts to be reinstated?
2. One Guilty Deed
When the chief witness that can bring down Michael Shand (Tom Georgeson), an organized crime boss, is found dead on the south coast, it all points to Shand's henchmen. But the desolate caravan site that Lynley and Havers find themselves on is haunted by ghosts of the past, and ghosts - it appears - can come back and kill.
3. Chinese Walls
When Emily Proctor (Isabella Calthorpe) is found murdered in Hyde Park, Lynley and Havers are led to human rights lawyer Tony Wainwright (Samuel West), if Wainwright's passionate temper and a concealed affair with the victim seem to place him as the main suspect, but when Emily's double life is exposed, Lynley and Havers enter a world of internet porn and a family with something to hide.
4. In the Blink of an Eye
When former war photographer Peter Rooker (Richard Copestake) is shot, a murder trail leads back to a family slaughtered by the Serbian militia in Bosnia. When Lynley asks his wife Helen (Catherine Russell) to assist him with unlocking the psychological history behind the killing, he sets in motion a tragic trail of events.- Actors:
