Episode 2 (Wild Justice) Preview

Rabbis, nuns, mullahs, and Buddhists peacefully commingle with their friar hosts at an interfaith conference at St. Gerard’s college. But when an American female bishop is found dead, poisoned by a glass of the college’s own chianti, Lewis (Kevin Whately) and Hathaway (Laurence Fox) suspect that the bishop’s liberal views led to her murder. That is, until a far more gruesome death occurs, mirroring a macabre murder from a Jacobean Revenge tragedy. It’s a case that demands Hathaway’s prodigious literary and theological knowledge and Lewis’ keen and common-sense gut instinct. But are those resources dimming for the partners as one feels stirrings of his old call to seminary and the other considers his own mortality…and early retirement? They must somehow put struggles with faith aside before an obsessed killer takes another stab at wild justice. Amelia Bullmore (Endgame) guest stars.
