Manhunt

When the battered body of French student Amélie Delagrange is found on Twickenham Green, Detective Chief Inspector Colin Sutton is appointed senior investigating officer, his first big case. Despite objections from his superiors, Sutton believes her murder may be connected to a previous attack on another woman.

Sutton directs his team to prioritize the search for a white van, which he believes will lead them to the killer, but morale dwindles when the hunt proves daunting. Sutton's obsession with the case puts strain on his relationship with his wife when he decides to cancel on a family trip at the last minute.

Sutton launches a complex effort to arrest the prime suspect, Levi Bellfield, but things don't go as planned. Once Bellfield is in custody, Sutton and his team race to compile enough evidence to convict him.
