Time matters

Lilly Rush reopens a 1998 cold case that drove Vera nuts. They receive a letter from the serial rapist whose last victim, Gail Chimayo, was also killed and who is about to strike again after no activity during the last 5 years.
Once the main suspect, Gail's boyfriend, is finally discarded, the case gets a whole new angle. Lilly's
sensitive and soft approach makes the rape victims more inclined to talk. The pair obtain a composite and then a scenario detailing how the rapist picks his victims, leading them to the killer.

He's bragging, he's telling us he's back

I just wish we could met under different circumstances.

Vera: this case became a health issue for me

The discovery of nine human skulls leads Rush (Kathryn Morris) back to George Marks, the serial killer she was unable to incriminate months earlier, and who walked away a free man. As the detectives reinvestigate his mother's murder from 1972, George is forced to emerge from hiding to face Rush again. This time, their very lives are at stake in their final showdown.

It's darkness. It always comes back.

Lilly and the cold case team will have to decode the clues given by a twisted killer in order to save the life of a young boy who has been left to die alone. But first they must find the boy and for that they need to dig a little deeper into their own pasts.

The first is denial. Then anger. Then bargaining. Depression and acceptance.

A desperate father turned serial killer coerces the team into taking another look of his son's 1987 murder.
