Product Detail

Freshly promoted DI Anna Travis (Kelly Reilly, Sherlock Holmes) reunites with DCS James Langton (Ciar?n Hinds, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy) to investigate the murder of a former police officer. The dead man was Langton's friend, and the detectives soon learn the case is much bigger than they first believed. A drug found at the scene has the chillingly accurate street name "Drop Dead," and the notorious criminal behind the drug might be someone who no longer exists. Based on the bestselling novels by Lynda La Plante, this hit British police drama blends taut storytelling with convincing chemistry between Travis, who "sizzles" (The Guardian, U.K.), and Langton, her hard-boiled, flawed, and charismatic boss. Set 2 includes the three-part program Deadly Intent and guest stars Julian Sands (A Room with a View). Part 1 - In London, ex-cop Frank Brandon is shot dead in a drug den and his glamorous widow, Julia, is strangely unmoved. With little help from her distracted supervisor, and despite Langton's orders, Travis goes in search of the truth. Part 2 - As the body count rises, Langton acknowledges that Travis may be on to something. The detectives get a confession about the Frank Brandon shooting, but the other murders remain unsolved. An international drug lord seems poised to introduce a new drug to the U.K. Part 3 - Three are dead, and Julia could be next. She tells the truth about her marriages to Frank Brandon and Anthony Collingwood, also known as Alexander Fitzpatrick. The team catches a break when a CCTV camera captures a partial image of a killer's face.
