The opening story of the second series sees Vera battle health issues and a colleague who puts in a transfer request.
Vera also feels she has been caught napping. Her first sergeant, Stuart Macken is in hospital as his daughter was seriously injured in an arson attack. A hooded figure threw a petrol bomb. A distraught Macken then throws himself to his death at the hospital.
A shaken Vera probes Macken's ex-wife's family and also examines the arrests that Macken had made in a recent protest.
I just thought the story ended up being too convoluted for its own good. By the time the culprit was revealed, my thoughts were that it was too left field. In fact it was too far fetched as if logic took a back seat.
