The Long Shadow

The police struggle to catch the killer of a woman murdered in Leeds, and a desperate mother is forced to make a difficult decision.

The investigation spreads to Bradford with the murder of another young woman, and a female police officer is tasked with dangerous undercover work.

The police revisit historic attacks in the hope of identifying further victims, and George Oldfield is fired up by the arrival of a letter from the killer.

After a chance arrest, the killer is finally caught and the failures of the investigation are laid bare in the wake of the trial.
