EPISODE 3: Mincemeat

When a body is pulled out of the river near Harry's local pub, something about the dead man feels familiar to Harry. When she remembers how she knows him, she realizes she's stumbled onto the ultimate misdirect. Harry and Fergus go undercover at the house of the "grieving widow," a Polish restaurant, a girls' boarding school (with the admirable assistance of Harry's teenage granddaughter, Lola), and a greyhound racetrack to uncover the sinister truth. Along the way, Harry starts to grow closer to Ray, Charlie's boss and mentor. This will get messy.

EPISODE 4: An Unhappy Happy Is a Dangerous Thing

Harry and Fergus agree to help local loan shark, Happy, find out who murdered his employee in return for Happy ripping up Fergus' father's sizeable debt. Seeing links between the killing and Dostoevsky's Crime and Punishment brings Harry to the attention of the fledgling serial killer, Billy Lund. A very disturbed young man, Billy becomes fixated on Harry, seeing her as his natural nemesis, but when Harry gets too close for Billy's liking, he turns the tables on her. Harry and Fergus have to race against the clock to decipher Billy's warped mind and save the life of someone Harry loves.
