Episode 5 of 6

On a moor outside of Shipton Abbott, a woman is found with an arrow in her back and no sign of who might have shot her.

On the open ground of Abbott Moor, an early-morning walker stumbles across a chilling sight: a woman, face down on the ground, with an arrow straight through her shoulder. The victim, Niamh Kirby, didn鈥檛 see her attacker, and there鈥檚 no trace of their presence or weapon at the scene.

As the team dig deeper, they uncover a family feud between Niamh and her brother-in-law. She accused her brother-in-law of murdering her husband, who vanished from Shipton Abbott overnight a decade before, and the bad blood between them has never settled. With answers lying in the past, they find themselves with more than one crime to solve.

Meanwhile, other plans are afoot; with the wedding fast approaching, Anne dives headlong into the planning, but Humphrey and Martha worry that she might be a little too invested in their fairytale ceremony after her recent romantic entanglements. Esther wrestles with unexpected consequences when a white lie she told Zoe about her dead father comes back to haunt her.
