Prime Suspect 3 Season 1: Episode Guide & Ratings

Tennison briefly reunites with an old flame, an author, but breaks it off, as he is married with children. She accepts a new job as DCI in Metro Vice, reuniting with the difficult DS Otley, after the former DCI was scapegoated after a failed operation. The supposed objective, clearing the streets of rent boys and other youthful offenders, remains the number one priority. The team investigates the murder of a 17-year-old rent boy, Colin 'Connie' Jenkins, which Tennison sees as connected. Every officer with rank, however, including Tennison's former boss, warns her to quit her enquiries. The investigation leads to a center for homeless boys, run by Edward Parker-Jones. The operation's prime suspect is James Jackson, a violent and ruthless procurer of children for prostitution.
