演员Ben Glenroy(保罗·路德 Paul Rudd 饰)在第二季结局中令人震惊地去世后,Charles(史蒂夫·马丁 Steve Martin 饰)、Oliver(马丁·肖特 Martin Short 饰)和Mabel(赛琳娜·戈麦斯 Selena Gomez 饰)开始调查这起发生在Oliver负责的百老汇节目幕后的悲剧。 在节目联合主演Loretta Durkin(梅丽尔·斯特里普 Meryl Streep 饰)的帮助下,三人组发现这起案件比Arconia的谋杀案更难侦破,但仍然乐观地认为,他们会找到谁杀死了Oliver的男主角,而Oliver也试图将自己的节目重新运作起来。 由于剧院里的每个人都可能成为嫌疑人,三人组的破案工作十分艰巨。至少他们的粉丝们会得到全新的一季播客。
After her bittersweet success in series one, Karen has been promoted to Detective Inspector and seemingly given the authority she has long been fighting for. Just as she’s getting into the swing of her powerful new role, she is assigned an infamous unsolved case that will put her under intense scrutiny; from her boss, from the media, and ultimately, from sinister forces that would rather the past stayed in the past.
The 1984 case of Catriona and Adam Grant has confounded investigators and intrigued the public like no other. Catriona, the charming young heiress to a vast oil fortune, and her two year old son Adam, were brutally kidnapped at gunpoint outside a fish and chip shop in Fife. The ransom notes that followed stirred up an uncontrollable press storm, but when the culprits fell silent, the police faltered, and Catriona and Adam were never seen again.
Now, a man’s body has been discovered, with indisputable links to the original kidnap. With the first piece of evidence in decades, Karen must assemble an unbeatable team alongside her sincere and lovable sidekick DC Jason ‘Mint’ and the brilliant – but romantically complicated – DS Phil Parhatka. With the international renown of the kidnap and the constant pressure from Catriona’s father, Sir Broderick Grant, the team take on the biggest challenge of their careers to date. As Karen delves deeper into what happened in the autumn of 1984, political grudges and painful secrets reveal themselves, and it soon becomes clear… the past is far from dead.
