Vera: Set 9

Return to the beautiful, wind-swept moors of Northumbria, where DCI Vera Stanhope dons her hat and mackintosh to solve four more complex crimes, with help from patient DS Aiden Healy, and the rest of her loyal staff. Vera needs all the help she can get when bodies turn up in the local landfill, a coastal town’s shipyard, the River Tyne and under a burnt-out nightclub. Follow loose ends to old evidence ... a drugs network ... an abusive relationship ... and a cold case that was once too hot to handle. BAFTA and Golden Globe-winner Brenda Blethyn (Atonement, Pride & Prejudice) stars as the unconventional and brilliant detective who calls ruthless killers “pet” and “love” as she locks them away. The award-winning international hit, based on the novels by Ann Cleeves. 6 hours on 2 discs. SDH
