One tense moment saw Neville presented with a book written by Cartwright with a note that read: "From your number one fan," which only pushed him over the edge.
Despite knowing that Cartwright was to blame, Neville and the team had no solid evidence – not to mention no specific motive – to finally nail him down once and for all.
Neville headed over to Cartwright's hotel room at the Mandabay Hotel to once again accuse him of murder. But did the DI actually kill him in his fit of rage? Or has he been framed? And if so, by whom? We can't wait to find out.
