Summary
Suspicion falls on members of the immigrant workforce after a suitcase containing the body of farm owner Darren Bailey is pulled from the river. Bill discovers that the farm had been used to launder criminal proceeds through the clever accounting of the victim's much younger Slovenian girlfriend, Lubica, who has been made sole owner of the farm's assets. This makes her a key suspect, particularly after it's revealed that her and Darren had an argument on the night he went missing. However, with many of Darren's employees seeming happy at the news of his demise, and stories coming to light about how he squeezed them at every opportunity, it isn't an open and shut case. Starring Rob Lowe, Rachael Stirling and Angela Griffin

Really, you’re still watching this? OK, if you must… Muriel, the only detective in Lincolnshire, is once again the lead investigator on a murder when the body of the owner of a broccoli farm is found chopped up in a suitcase.
Muriel’s sidekick remains the Chief Constable, Bill Hixon (Rob Lowe), who accompanies her on inquiries that are helped along by Fortuitous CCTV Footage.
The dead man’s awful family and his girlfriend all behave in ways guaranteed to arouse suspicion, while that local newspaper reporter played by Angela Griffin knocks on the door of Bill’s house asking for a quote. Then Bill commits criminal damage and illegally discharges a shotgun. There’s only one episode left.
