Episode One:
Limbo
When the body of a child is discovered in the grounds of an Italian country villa, it seems for the English parents that the past has finally been laid to rest – their child had been abducted 15 years ago but never found, until now. Lynley, who as a family friend had played an ancillary role to the Italian investigation, goes out to Italy to support the family. But when he begins an affair with the family’s now grown-up daughter – Julia – and she is then found dead in her Rome apartment, Lynley is hauled in for questioning by the Italian police. Is he guilty of her murder? Lynley is convinced that Julia’s death is somehow tied to her brother’s abduction and death 15 years ago. Is Sullivan, the man Lynley helped convict of the crime 15 years ago, in fact innocent as he has always claimed?
Episode Two:
Know Thine Enemy
When the body of a missing schoolgirl is discovered in a lake, a post mortem reveals she has been raped and probably held prisoner. Meanwhile, another schoolgirl is reported missing by her mother. Unless Kelly is found quickly, she will slip into a diabetic coma. But with Assistant Commissioner Evans stopping door-to-door enquiries fearing they will alarm the public, will Lynley and Havers be able to find enough leads to save her?
