1. Moira under suspicion

It’s a peaceful morning in the village, but not for long of course! The police are soon driving in convoy up Main Street.

DS Stewart arrives at Butler’s Farm and sets about interviewing the staff. But Moira has no time for questions as she heads off to collect Cain from the hospital.

Robert and Victoria are interviewed and given Robert knows he has set Moira up, he does all he can to paint her in an innocent light. He hopes he’s done enough to save her bacon.

Cain and Moira are next to be questioned and it’s clear DS Walsh is suspicious of her relationship with Celia. Moira does her best to make the police officer see she is innocent, but is it enough?

Later, the police visit Home Farm and question Joe, who wastes no time in making sure Moira is investigated further…
