A man is found shot dead in a hotel room and the cash he was carrying has gone missing. We discover the man owed his ex-wife thousands of pounds in unpaid child support and was lying to his girlfriend about his line of work. DS Casey and DS Brooks also learn he has a son dying of leukaemia, but hadn't been tested for a bone marrow match. Attention turns to the ex-father-in-law, Philip Donovan. Did he hunt down the father of his dying grandson to try to recoup the unpaid money or is there more to this family set up than first appears? At the CPS Jake and Kate work out their differences and reach a more even keel.

Le corps d'une femme, Charlotte Leigh, est repêché dans la Tamise. L'autopsie révèle qu'il s'agit d'un meurtre que l'on a tenté de maquiller en suicide.

Mais il a un alibi : à l'heure du crime, il se trouvait à Édimbourg. En revanche, l'enquête montre que son mari actuel, Sean Harte, n'était pas un modèle de fidélité et que sa fille, Holly, entretenait des rapports conflictuels avec sa mère

S7 E5 • Le renoncement

Following a break-in, a frail, elderly woman is found dead in her flat. DS Brooks and DS Casey suspect a robbery gone wrong and treat it as murder. Tipped off by the victim’s granddaughter, Connie, the investigation turns towards the live-in carer who has gone missing. But the carer, Cecile, claims she was fired because she disobeyed Connie’s instructions not to feed her grandmother. Further investigations throw more suspicion on the granddaughter who is charged. Despite her brief arguing that it is impossible to prove Connie is responsible for her grandmother’s death, Chief Prosecutor Thorne has the bit between his teeth when he tells the jury Connie was the only real family the victim had, and she left her to die.
