Series 1 The First Killings and The Reckoning: After two horribly mutilated bodies are discovered, DCI Red Metcalfe is assigned to the case and plunged head-on into a nightmare. Series 2 Vengeance Is Mine: A man is buried alive, and Metcalfe must delve into a serial killer's psyche. Series 3 As a prison riot erupts into violence, Red comes face to face with the ring leader: the man who once held him hostage and nearly drove him mad. Injured prisoners are moved to a crumbling, overstretched hospital. But what they don't know is a killer's amongst them, preying on their weaknesses. As the vicious murders spiral out of control, can Red and his team put aside their own emotional torment and find a method in his madness? Series 4 When the team arrive at a van abandoned on landfill sight they soon realise this is a case, the like they have never seen before. The van door is locked, the glass darkened, an angry buzzing inside. Phoebe is in the front seat, wasps crawling in and out of her open mouth: SAVE ME is written in blood on the windscreen. Red's analytical skills are stretched to the limit as he tries to fathom the workings of the mind of a killer determined to create their own Hell here on earth. Series 5 Renowned detective Joseph Walker is haunted by a past of violence, passion and betrayal - a past which threatens his ability to hunt down a killer with a terrifying message for the world. Heading up an investigation into a series of gruesome and elaborately staged murders, Joseph is puzzled by the bizarre nature of the killings and the presence of mysterious symbols traced into a layer of sand at each murder scene. To end the killings, Joseph must solve the riddle. But the clock is ticking - are Joseph and his new squad just tracking a criminal or are they themselves part of the murderer’s plan?

All five instalments of the dark BBC crime drama series following the investigations of Detective Red Metcalfe (Ken Stott). The first series, comprising 'The First Killings' and 'The Reckoning', is set in sweltering London summer. A serial killer is targeting wealthy men, slaughtering them and replacing their tongues with silver spoons. The man appointed to track the murderer down is DCI Red Metcalfe, renowned for his ability to get under the skin of any killer. However, this knack seems to desert him as the body count continues to rise without providing the slightest clue to link the otherwise unrelated victims. In the second series, 'Vengeance Is Mine', things get personal for Metcalfe when his own estranged brother is found stabbed at the busy Leadenhall Market. As the body count rises, the horrifying truth begins to dawn: a sadistic serial killer is on the loose, and none of the investigators - or their nearest and dearest - are safe. In 'The Promise', Metcalfe struggles with an uneasy conscience even as he races against time to catch a sadistic killer stalking the corridors of a hospital. In 'The Harrowing', Metcalfe finds that the hunt for a serial killer is beginning to affect him in ways he could not have anticipated. As the clues left by the killer become more confusing, can he stop him in time to save more innocent people from being hurt? In the fifth and final series, Marc Warren stars as DCI Joseph Walker, taking over from Ken Stott's character. In this instalment, Walker's renowned instincts and tenacity of character are questioned as his personal demons invade his investigation.
