DCI Banks

When two police officers are sent to a house following a report of a disturbance, they stumble upon a truly horrific scene. A young woman is unconscious, bleeding from a head wound. Hiding in the cellar is her husband, ready to wield a knife at anyone who tries to enter. What happens next leaves one of the officers dead and the other fighting for their career.

Inspector Banks concludes the chilling murder investigation that will test him to the limit.

The detective and sidekick Annie Cabbot investigate a murder on a canal boat destroyed in a fire and evidence quickly points to the victim being involved in an art forgery scam. But with a second body discovered, confusion mounts as to who was the intended victim.

When Tom McMahon becomes the third victim of a spate of suspicious fires, Banks realizes he is now on the trail of a serial killer. A new discovery about the methods used by the murderer casts doubt on the alibis of all his suspects and the detective is determined to get to the truth.

Cabbot investigates when a woman is found murdered on the moors. As the identity of the victim is established, it becomes apparent any number of suspects may have had a reason to want her dead. Meanwhile, Banks is called in when the body of a teenage girl is discovered in a storage room.

The detective and his team find themselves investigating the murder of one of their own. Cabbot is convinced there is a link between the deaths of Lucy Payne and her colleague, but is dismissed as trying to push her career ambitions. However, after receiving new information from another force, she begins to uncover the real connection between the killings.
