'The Marlow Murder Club' Wraps Up “Death Comes To Marlow” with a Bit of Hijinx
The Marlow Murder Club Season 2 investigation has officially gone covert. The police have put the case on the "back burner" because the evidence points to Sir Peter's death being an accident. DS Tanika Malik (Natalie Dew) agrees with our central trio that something suspicious definitely happened in that study, though, and she's working with the MMC to find out more about who had it out for Sir Peter. His eldest son, Tristram (Tom Stourton), is still the primary suspect, even though he was in the garden at the time of Sir Peter's "accident".
Clearly, he was working with someone, and the ladies had his potential accomplice in their crosshairs. Sarah Fitzherbert (Mogali Masuku) serves coffee at the Marlow train station. Judith (Samantha Bond) and Becks (Cara Horgan) stopped by for a drink with the clever ruse of baiting Sarah into conversation with a fake story about Becks' alleged hot-and-cold boyfriend. Sarah takes the bait and reveals that she and Tristam are high school sweethearts who can't stay away from each other. Judith doesn't seem to understand the point of a covert mission because after Sarah's confession, she point-blank asks where Sarah was at the time of Sir Peter's murder. It's safe to say that Sarah will report the two ladies getting into her business to Tristram.
Unfortunately for Sarah, telling Tristram about the encounter leads to a devastating end that no one expected.
