Anna Stamp becomes the focus of the investigation: why she perjured herself at Sally’s trial is the big question.
Increasingly frustrated by Anna’s frigidity her boyfriend Mark makes a clumsy attempt to force their relationship beyond the purely platonic but he’s shocked when he accidentally discovers the real depth of Anna’s obsession with murdered Matty.
Whether prompted by resentment or genuine righteousness, he reports her to the Police.
John’s doctor shares an explosive confidence that leads to an intensive round of questioning for John and Maria. In the weeks before Matty’s murder something serious had obviously led to a breakdown of relationships within the family, so much so that Social Services had become involved.
Whatever fiction John & Maria have spun to protect themselves from the truth, their resolve to say nothing holds fast through the toughest of Braithwaite’s questioning. But their prevarication serves only to amplify the suggestion of John’s involvement in his son’s death.
Could this explain John’s erratic behaviour after Matty died …is it possible he murdered his own son?
Anna is surprised when the Police arrive at her apartment with a search warrant. When they discover evidence supporting Mark’s claim of Anna’s obsession with Matty she is arrested and taken into custody for questioning.
It becomes clear that Anna’s uncontrollable feelings could have easily led this troubled young woman to kill.
