1Part One
When Banaz Mahmod's boyfriend reports her missing, DCI Caroline Goode discovers the missing 20-year-old had been to the police five times to report threats to life, even presenting a list of people wanting to kill her for shaming her family.
2Part Two
Banaz' body is found in Birmingham following a lead from a phone tap, but the DNA evidence is destroyed when a water pipe bursts. More evidence from the phones lead to Banaz' father and uncle standing trial, where their solicitors mount a convincing defence - until Bekhal courageously steps forward to deliver evidence from behind a screen. Meanwhile, Caroline tries to arrange for the last two perpetrators to be extradited from Iraq to the UK.
