BBC Radio 4 Extra - DCI Alma Blair, Deadheading, Episode 4

Fear stalks the herd. Is the case nearing its end?

Fear stalks the herd. Is the case nearing its end? Crime comedy with Julie Hesmondhalgh and Miriam Margolyes. From June 2014.

Fear stalks the herd when there's a predator on the loose in Val McDermid's comedy detective story starring Julie Hesmondhalgh and Miriam Margolyes. And with only two episodes to go, surely we must be getting nearer to solving the crime?

This fourth episode builds to the moment of truth when the suspects are invited to turn on each other. The unravelling of the detective story so often depends on one person betraying another. It's one of the things this species is particularly adept at.

Sound Designer: Eloise Whitmore
Writer: Val McDermid
