DCI Vera Stanhope (Brenda Blethyn) investigates the mysterious murder of a fifty six year old grandmother, discovered by a young girl on the wild and desolate Northumberland moors.

The body is swiftly identified as Anne-Marie Richards, recently returned from Scotland to reconcile with her two daughters, Nicole McKendrick (Kelly Gough) and Christine Withers  (Faye Marsay).  A 999 call placed by Anne-Marie on the night of the murder coupled with the disturbed state of her cottage, suggests a possible abduction by someone she knew. 

Faye will appear in the first episode “Dark Road” as Christine Withers. The episode airs in the UK on January 31, 2016.
