Patience

A man dies after setting himself alight in a carpark in York. It could be suicide, but the police are called in to investigate. Detective Bea Metcalf is intrigued by the autistic young woman in Criminal Records when Patience spots a link to other cases. Yearning to feel useful, Patience jumps at the invitation to help, but it will come at a personal cost and she is hiding a big secret from Bea.

Patience is upset when she is a suspect in the burning man investigation and must prove her innocence by cracking the case. Detective Bea learns more about the young woman’s autism and her difficult past and feels responsible for her. Patience makes some important connections with other cold cases and together with Bea, they uncover a trail leading to South America and back.

The team are baffled when a young woman is found dead in the dinosaur exhibit at York Museum. The investigation leads them into the shadowy world of fossil smuggling and Patience makes a startling deduction. But Patience is hurt when Bea doubts her conclusions. Meanwhile Bea is struggling to decide if she should get her son tested for ADHD.

A bestselling crime writer is found dead behind locked doors. Bea asks Patience to help with the investigation. The dead man, Harry Franklin, is one of Patience’s favorite writers and she is intrigued by his death and his reclusive life. Patience helps make an important breakthrough in the case which links back to a decades-past fire which left the writer terribly scarred and a woman dead.

A body disappears from the morgue. Is it body snatchers or did the corpse ‘walk’ away? The victim is the brother of Patience’s friend Billy, and she knows she must help. Could Billy’s brother still be alive and if he is--where has he gone and who wanted him dead? Meanwhile, Patience faces her fears of social situations to attend Bea’s birthday celebration and things don’t go quite as she hoped.
