Crime

When a local schoolgirl goes missing in Edinburgh, it falls to Detective InspectorI Ray Lennox (Dougray Scott) and his rookie partner Detective Sergeant Amanda Drummond (Joanna Vanderham) to find what happened to her.

Lennox interrogates S&M den owner Richie Gulliver - who refuses to reveal his whereabouts on the day of Britney’s disappearance. Meanwhile, Gillman and Leblanc are able to identify the man who murdered Fabienne, and Gaston and Lennox begin to feel the strain of the case.

Convinced Mr. Confectioner is toying with his team, Lennox is determined to end it all on his terms.

Confectioner continues to toy with Lennox and Drummond in a curious game of cat-and-mouse; sensing he's getting under their skin, he pushes further still, bringing up Lennox's drinking problem. The surveillance that Ray and Amanda set up pays off. Ray races to save a child.

Lennox and Drummond head to Leeds Police Station where they meet up with DCI Ken Custer to discuss their findings on the Confectioner. Lennox knows that in order to defeat the killer, he himself must regress, confess his shame, and show his weakness.
