Adapted from the Ruth Rendell novel by Trevor Preston 1
Directed by Mary McMurray
A Television South Production
Those photographs of Greenham Common, letters to the newspapers, that television interview, the meetings she attends, that’s commitment! That’s standing up and being counted when nobody else gives a damn about anything!
Wexford narrowly escapes death in a car bomb attack meant for his daughter, and Inspector Burden has to take over the case of a woman found dead in a Kingsmarkham car park.

Notes
- Inspector Burden notices and dislikes a print of René Magritte’s The Menaced Assassin hanging in psychologist Serge Olson’s room. Olson then shows Burden another of his Magritte prints, Time Transfixed, explaining that Clifford Sanders, the suspect in the case,
hates time, he fears it.
