Another feature-length episode from the popular ITV detective series. The dead body of a student is found and at first the clues relate the murder to a drugs deal. But when a pamphlet for a local church is discovered at the crime scene, DCI Burke (Alex Norton) and his team question the church priest who testifies that, although he didn't know the victim, someone came to confession the night before to find out what the atonement for murder was. However, when another murder takes place, it appears as though the priest knows more than he is letting on.
