My Thoughts

Wire in the Blood is an exciting crime series that give you a look into criminal behavior. The series centers around Dr. Tony Hill, a man who helps the local police establish profiles of serial killers. This DVD includes all 23 episodes. There are too many to give you a run down of each one, but here are a few of my favorites:

Shadows Riding - Tony and Carol investigate the death of a teenager. In addition, a famous television star is getting hate mail.

The Darkness of Light - A 500 year old corpse in found in a hotel with the fresh bodies of a young couple beneath it.

Redemption - Three dead boys are found it three different locations. Tony thinks a serial killer is leading them away because they were being abused.

Nothing But the Night - Tony gives up his publicity tour to help solve the case of a woman beaten to death by an ironing board.

Torment - A prostitute is killed and Tony thinks its a known serial killer. Though the killer is already is prison, he refuses to talk.

The Colour of Amber - A young girl is kidnapped which raises an Amber alert. They discover she was taken by a pedophile.

Falls the Shadow - Another prostitute is called by blunt force trauma and one of Tony's friends is s suspect.

This exciting series if filled with intrigue and inspired by the novels of Val McDermid. It's also very graphic, so be prepared for some spine-chilling moment. If you want to grab a copy of awesome box set, you can find it online at Acorn Media or on Amazon.
