Ep 1. Limbo

When the body of a child is discovered in the grounds of an Italian country villa, it seems for the English parents that the past has finally been laid to rest - their child had been abducted 15 years ago but never found, until now. Lynley, who as a family friend had played an ancillary role to the Italian investigation, goes out to Italy to support the family. But when he begins an affair with the family's now grown-up daughter - Julia - and she is then found dead in her Rome apartment, Lynley is hauled in for questioning by the Italian police. Is he guilty of her murder?
