The killer: Lawrence Frampton, a collections agent who is mourning the recent death of his wife, Helen Frampton, from complications from COPD. Rick's dead body is found behind the wheel of his car in the parking lot at his workplace, his hands handcuffed together around the steering wheel and a duct tape fastened plastic bag over his head, asphyxiation the cause of death. The detectives initially find that Rick is generally well liked by his colleagues, but that the more they delve into his life that he was involved in some subversive behavior, one issue dealing with jealousy against anyone who paid attention to his wife, Lisa Wyatt, who the detectives cannot seem to locate. Evidence seems to indicate that she has recently left him, placing her on the suspect list. Although Angie is eventually able to tie evidence at the crime scene to Lawrence as well as other issues between the Wyatts and Framptons, the case becomes just as much about the missing Lisa. With the Neville Montgomery issue, Angie believes based on recent goings-on and what she is able to find from Maria's past that Maria is not as innocent as she first appeared. Mark has a lunch meeting with Deputy Chief Halford, which, although not directly discussed, seems to be all about Angie's "harassment" of Neville. And Oscar makes some further decisions about his life based on updated news regarding his illness. Written by Huggo See less
