- Stop it!

Stop it!

- Selfish, inconsiderate.

Good morning.

- Is it, I hadn't noticed.

- Well, this should help,
triple shot espresso,

jumpstart that heart.

Cheer up, it might never happen.

- Lafferty's here already,
he's unbearably keen today.

- There's nothing
wrong with that.

- Tell me about this trailer.

- The container was shipped
and sealed from Denmark

four days ago and it was
unloaded in Harwich yesterday.

- Some say the world will
end in fire, some say in ice.

William Butler Yeats.

Robert Frost,
and I thought you

were an educated man.

- Hi.

The victim is male, obviously,
late 20s, early 30s,

I'd say Mediterranean or
Middle Eastern origin,

oh, and see this, if
he'd frozen to death,

the livid mortis'd be red.

- What about time of death,
if he died in Denmark,

it could be a case
for their police.

- Sorry, nice try, the
core temperature

is still a couple of
degrees above ambient,

he's been dead less
than 48 hours.

- How soon can you
do a post-mortem?

- Day at least, they give
you a turkey at Christmas.

- I'd rather not.

You talked to the driver yet?

- Yeah the only time the
vehicle was unattended

was an hour's break
in a service station

off the M25, and he slept in
the cab til the market opened,

so the tachygraphs
should confirm it.

- Fantastic, so we don't
know who the victim is,

we've got no witnesses,
no suspects and no motive.

- I'm sure something'll turn up.

- Can you tone down
the passages today?

Oi, you silly chaps, mind
what you're doing, will you?

- Sir?

He must've been wearing
it under his shirt.

ID and address, I told you
something would turn up,

okay, Martin Moran,
Albert's Way, Dartford.

Aye aye.

- Hold on.

- There's about 200 here.

- No, the paper, let me see.

- What is it?

- Vellum parchment.

- What language is that?

- Arabic, ancient Arabic,
I'd guess, that's beautiful.

Now bag this up very carefully.

Need to take it to a
manuscript expert.

Yes, Inspector Lynley.

Oh, hi, have
I called at a bad time?

- Sorry, who is this?

- We met at the House of Lords?

- Oh, Christine, of course.

I was beginning
to think you'd forgotten me.

- How could I forget?

- Look, I was just wondering
when we were going to finally

have that cappuccino.

- The way I'm going, it'll be
more likely to be a nightcap,

I should think.

- Oh?

Well, strangely enough I have
no plans for this evening.

- Hold on a second, just
a moment, Havers,

get in touch with Dartford
BCU, make sure

there's a family liaison
officer on call.

Hello?

- Sorry, yeah, I'm all yours.

- Well, would you like
me to pick us a table

for supper then?

- That's great, well, I leave
myself in your capable hands.

- All right, bye bye.
- Bye.

- The high-flying lawyer?

- Yeah, we're gonna have
dinner, talk about work,

there's quite a lot of
crossover, you know.

- Oh, is that what they're
calling it these days.

- Can't two professionals
meet for a bite to eat

without everyone getting
the wrong idea?

- I'm all yours, I leave
myself in your capable hands.

- Of course, I forgot,
you're the expert

on courtship rituals,
aren't you, with all your

dating adventures.

- Yeah, well, that all turned
out to be a total waste

of time.

How did you know it
was ancient Arabic?

- Benefit of a liberal
arts education.

- Makes you an expert
on everything.

- Of course.

Except women.

- There's the family
liaison officer.

Okay, Martin Moran,
some juvenile offenses,

shoplifting, assault, a
conviction for selling

prescription drugs,
anabolic steroids.

- Happy families, eh?

- Mrs. Moran, I'm
Detective Sergeant Havers,

this is Detective
Inspector Lynley.

Can we come in?

Thank you.

- Thank you.

- You are married to
Martin Moran, right?

- Suppose so, yeah.

Who's that?

- It's the police, something
about Martin.

- What's he done now?

- Mrs. Moran, when did
you last see your husband?

- I dunno, about
a week ago, why?

Do you know
where he's been since then?

- No.

- When was the last
time you spoke with him?

- Night before last, yeah,
we had a bit of a row,

you know, access to the
kids, see, he keeps arguing

about, you know, changing
all the times and stuff

and he wanted to come
and pick 'em up today,

we split up a couple of months
ago, I'm with Craig now.

- Just a minute, what's
this all about?

- I'm sorry to be the
bearer of bad news,

but we do have reason to believe

that your husband is dead.

- You're kidding?

I'm very
sorry, Mrs. Moran.

- You all right?

- Before we can make a formal
identification, we need you

to come and identify the body.

- Sir, we might have
jumped the gun.

- Is this a photograph
of your husband?

- Hold on a minute, I
thought you said he was dead.

- Oi.

- Dad!

- Martin Moran?

- I'm just picking the kids
up, there's no law against it.

- Do you recognize
this passport, sir?

- I ain't got a passport,
I've never been abroad.

- Have you been burgled
recently?

- Someone broke in the car
in Altham the other week,

you know what it's like there,
now what's this all about?

- Came in here, asking
us all these questions

and told us you were dead.
- What?

- They nearly gave
us a heart attack.

- Well, I'm afraid it's been
a case of mistaken identity.

We found a passport in your
name on a murder victim.

- We're very sorry, we
really didn't mean

to cause any distress.

- Distress, you can't go 'round
upsetting people like this

without checking your facts.

- Yeah, I understand
how you're feeling.

- This is out of order.

- You oughta complain.

- I'll get the family
liaison officer.

- We're really very
sorry, we didn't,

it's just a terrible
misunderstanding.

- Look what you've
done to my wife.

- It's emotional trauma.

- I should sue you
lot for damages.

- It's an easy mistake to make.

- We can't afford easy
mistakes, we should have

double checked first.

- It was a good forgery.

- Yeah, now it's left us
up the proverbial creek

without a paddle.

- The immigration and
nationalization department,

they specialize in
forged passports.

- Not the IMD, you know
what a nightmare they are

to work with.

- Well, sometimes
you gotta learn

to ask for a little bit of help.

- Don't tell me you were
taken in by this,

didn't they tell you?

Check the laser mark,
don't they train you

to look for these things?

- This is your specialty,
that's why we've come to you.

- Yes, everything
lands on my plate.

- We need an ID on our
victim urgently.

- And I'd like England
to win the World Cup.

- The IMD keeps a database
of all foreign nationals

entering the country, yes?

- If they come in legally.

- You do have facial
recognition software?

- The system's just got
onstream, look around,

I'm understaffed.

- Inspector Brennan,
I would appreciate it

if you gave this your
top priority,

it is a murder investigation.

- We've got major
investigations too,

the home offices just made
people trafficking top priority,

it's been giving the
same rating as drugs.

- We're very happy for you.

- We might be able to
work together in this.

Our victim was found in a
container that came into
Harwich.

- Go on.

- So there might be a people
trafficking connection,

now if you could help us
with our investigation,

we might be able to
help you with yours.

- I'll see what I can do,
but it could take a while.

- With every hour that
passes, the trail gets colder.

- I feel your pain.

- I feel it too in the neck.

- Don't let him get to you.

- What did I say about
working on multi-agency cases?

- Yeah, well, we haven't much
choice, it's the only lead

we've got.

- Good point, let's not
forget our manuscript.

- No cameras or eye witnesses
at labor, I'm afraid.

But the Harwich police say
they had a similar case

about two years ago, five
Thai women suffocated

in a truck, sir?

Each hour that passes
the trail gets colder?

- I remember the case, the
container wasn't refrigerated,

it was just badly ventilated,
it was manslaughter,

not murder, and those
girls were smuggled in

for use in the sex trade,
none of which apply to us.

- Well, maybe we should
liaise with Special Branch,

counterterrorism desk.

- Why?

- Well, this could be a threat
or some kind of message.

- Oh, so Arab equals
terrorist, isn't that

what they call institutional
prejudice?

- It's covering all the angles.

Inspector Lynley?

- Professor Blackwell,
pleasure to meet you.

Thank you for seeing
us such short notice,

this is Detective
Sergeant Havers.

- We wondered if you could
translate this for us.

What are
these smudges?

- Oh, the manuscript was
dusted for fingerprints.

- Unfortunately we found
it on the body of a man

in a refrigerated container.

If anyone killed
someone, unless it be

for murder or spreading
mischief in the land,

it would be as if he
killed everyone.

- Perhaps it is some
kind of message.

- It is, it's a message
from God.

Please.

- Right.

- Sorry, sir, bit of a
maze in here, I'm afraid.

- What did Prince Charles
compare it to?

- An academy for secret
police.

- You know, London's
the world's center

for stolen antiquities.

- Yeah, a rather dubious
distinction.

- They say art crime's
like a barometer

for all other crimes.

- Sad but true, it's
an underworld currency,

old books are used for
collateral in their drug deals,

gun running, people trafficking.

Take this for example,
this was found

in an abandoned getaway
car underneath the M40,

police found traces of
Semtex, blood and cocaine.

- That is harrowing, isn't it?

Something so beautiful being
mixed up with such ugliness.

- Beauty brings out
the worst in people.

Now, serif five I think,
verse 32, yeah.

And it goes on, "if
anyone saved a life,

"it would be as if he saved
the life of the whole people."

- It's a verse from the Quran?

- Not just any Quran, look
at this, early Kufic script,

I mean, I'd have to do
some dating tests,

but looking at the vellum,
I'd say ...

Seventh century, around the
time of third Caliph Osman.

- Didn't he compile the
very first official Quran?

- Very good, Inspector,
if this is genuine,

it's about as close to the
word of God as we can get.

- So that would make
this very valuable.

- To a historian or a
scholar, priceless,

but to a collector,
well, more precious

ounce for ounce than moon dust.

- And if it's genuine,
possible motive for murder.

- Why do you say that?

- Well, we strongly
suspect that the man

who was holding the
page was murdered.

- Like I said, beauty brings
out the worst in people.

- Where could our victim
have got it from?

- Well, there were reports of
one of these Qurans being kept

by a member of the Kuwaiti
royal family,

then it was stolen by the
republican guard when Iraq

invaded it in 1991, then
during the chaos of the second

Iraqi War, museums, libraries
being looted, burned,

you can imagine what happened,
could easily have been lost,

found again, smuggled out.

- Oh, excuse me.

- And how soon can you
get this verified?

- We're very busy, Inspector.

- Don't tell me you've
got a backlog too.

- I'm sure if I lean on
the conservation department

we can have it authenticated
within 24 hours.

- Please.

If it is authentic, who'd
be in the market

for such a manuscript?

- Huh, well, where to begin,
unscrupulous collectors,

corrupt officials, terrorists,
drug barons

trying to bypass the
banking system,

not to mention fundamentalist
Wahabi sects

or Mossad or anyone else with
some political interests.

We live in dark times,
Inspector.

- Well, if you get any results,
will you give me a call?

- Of course, keep your eye
out for any other pages,

if we could recover
the whole Quran ...

- We'll do our best.

- That was Brennan, he
thinks he's got an ID.

- Thank you very
much, Professor.

- Inspector.

- You want the good
or the bad news?

- Can't we just have the
name of our victim please?

- Latif Ansari, Jordanian
national,

came through Heathrow eight
months ago on a six month visa.

Accompanied by his wife, Narima,

and his brother, Ahmed.

- Registered address?

- That's the bad news, B
and B left six weeks ago,

no forwarding address.

- What about credit cards or
cash machine transactions?

- I wasn't born yesterday,
already checked, nothing.

- I need a full description
of these two,

they have to be considered
our prime suspects.

- I might have a
suspect for you.

- Since when did you
become a murder detective?

- Every forger has
his own style.

Some things they do
well, others not.

We think we know who
faked this one up.

The man who made this is
a major people trafficker,

about a couple of years
ago, five Thai girls

were found suffocated
in a truck?

- Yeah, we heard about that.
- In Harwich.

- But that wasn't murder.

- But this might be.

- Give me means and motive.

- Plenty, Moody passport like
this costs up to four grand,

maybe your victim
couldn't pay and was about

to shoot his mouth off.

- All right, what's the
name and address?

- We've been running the
surveillance on him for six
months,

he's slippery, I'm not
gonna let you run in there

and blow the operation.

With suspicion of murder, I
can get a warrant overnight.

We can hit him hard
in the morning.

If we work together,
share intelligence,

we could both get what we want.

- Okay, but I wanna talk
to him within 24 hours.

- It's a deal.

- Why do I keep getting
the feeling

this case is slipping
through my fingers?

- You're just tired, you
haven't had a good night's sleep

in a week.

- I get the message, at least
we've still got the body.

Better check Lafferty hasn't
disposed of it or something,

donated it to science.

Double check the IDs,
must be another way

of tracking his wife
and brother.

- Yep.

- What are you doing,
you're calling police?

You know what they do
to us if they find out,

come with me.

- Forget about human
rights issues, then,

let's just look at immigration
on economic grounds.

- I was, yours, I was thinking
all those fat fees you get

for defending those
asylum seekers.

Oh, yeah,
millions, Adam Smith,

philosopher of the
free market system?

- Yeah, I know who he was.

- He argued that capital
needed to flow freely

to make competition
work, but he also argued

for a free movement of labor,
free trade can only work

if we can travel internationally
to where the jobs are.

There's a right-wing argument
for economic migrants.

- Hold on a minute, just
because I'm a policeman

doesn't mean I'm a dyed
in the wool conservative.

- And just because I'm a lawyer

doesn't make me a Bollinger
Bolshevik.

- Maybe not, but you
know, I see the human cost

of all this freedom, murders
involving homeless people,

abandoned children, migrants.

So many displaced people
uprooted from their families,

nobody really has a home.

- That sounded heartfelt.

- No, no, no.

- Oh come on, you've
gotta relax sometimes,

let yourself loose?

- I can see how persuasive
you must be in court.

- I buy food.

- I don't want to eat.

- Now Narima, you must eat.

- You can't tell me what to do.

- I'd do anything for you.

I'd put my hand in fire
for you, huh, Narima?

- Stop it.

- I am your husband now.

- It's none of my business,
typical nosy lawyer.

- Go on.

- I heard you were
separated from your wife.

- We are living apart
for a trial period.

I've recently
been through the breakup

of a long relationship,
I know what it's like,

it's a very unsettling time.

- We don't know whether
we're going to try

and make it work again
or split up for good.

That's the ...

That's the worst
thing, isn't it?

The uncertainty.

- On the other hand ...

When nothing is certain,
everything is possible.

- Hi, need to confirm
a few things.

- I'm all yours.

- Right, you said that Latif
underwent some kind of surgery?

- I'm pretty sure he had a
kidney removed at some point,

followed by dialysis
over the last few months.

- How do you know?

- Well, come here.

Neat scar here, and he had
an AV shunt in this arm

to give easier access
for the dialysis.

Looks very recent, too,
well, we'll know a bit more

when he's warmed up
for the Y incision.

- So the dialysis could
have happened during

his time in London.

- Hmm, possibly.

- Okay, I'll check the
dialysis clinics.

- Thanks for a lovely dinner.

- Can I give you a lift home?

- I'm just over this
on the corner.

- Oh, well, then I'll walk you.

- You don't have to.

- It's my pleasure.

- Okay, no luck in these
dialysis units.

- Cheer up, I think I've got
a cause of death for you.

See, the broken hyoid bone
and the thyroid cartilage.

- The adam's apple.

- Fractured.

- So he was strangled before
he was put in the container?

- Yeah, but not manually, see,
there's no finger bruises,

it must have been some
kind of soft ligature.

- Could a woman have done it?

Takes three,
four minutes to kill a man

like that, he could've
been very ill,

too weak to put up a fight.

- Um, I've got to get home.

- Someone special?

- Late night TV.

- I'll be here all night.

Go on, then, abandon
me to this cold, harsh world.

- Enjoy your night in toil.

- Look, I'd ask you up
for a nightcap, but

it sounds so loaded.

- Yeah, I know what you mean.

- Oh, but what the hell,
life's too short,

do you wanna come up?

Okay, I get the message.

- No, no, no, don't get
that message, I mean,

don't take it the wrong way.

- Well, how am I supposed
to take it?

- I just ...

I need to be sure
that I'm ready.

You deserve that.

- Michael Sweet, 47, been
running a roaring trade

in false documents for years.

- Previous convictions?

- Just look in the file,
Sweets' trucking company

brought in those
four Thai girls,

we've got surveillance
connecting him to the Turks,

the Albanians, even the Chinese.

Boys in black are here, I'll
be going in 'round the back.

- Do you think we really
need heavy artillery on this?

- He's given us the
slip twice before,

we need to catch him redhanded,
make our charges stick.

- Brennan, just remember,
this is first and foremost

a murder investigation.

- You're like a stuck record.

- I'm only holding back to
help with your operation.

- Almost ready?

Got visual on target.

- Okay, where have you been?

- I was with Lafferty
last night.

Doing what,
admiring his medical?

- Our victim had
a kidney removed,

he was probably on dialysis,
so I thought we might

track down the wife and brother
through his medical records.

- And?

- No go, thousands of
clinics could have done

the procedure, but I
did have a better idea.

- Wotcher, okay, strike
force good to go, you ready?

- Also, Professor
Blackwell called.

- What did he want?

- Go, go, go.

- Police, drop the weapon!

- Drop the weapon!

Armed police,
drop the weapon.

- Come on, Michael, we've
got a passport,

embossing machine, card
skimmer, ultraviolet ink,

even some official stamps.

- I've never seen them
before in me life.

- You can do better than that.

- I can't be held responsible
for what my employees

get up to.

- Your prints on anything,
that story falls apart.

- Come on, what's a full
strike team cost you?

Four grand a day, plus, you've
got to have more than this

on me.

- How about suspicion of murder?

- What's going on?

I thought we agreed I'd
get first crack at him.

- You have, you blew it.

- I haven't really got started.

- You've had your chance.

I'm taking over this interview.

I'm DI Lynley, this
is DS Havers,

we're investigating a murder.

Sorry to hear.

- Recognize this man?

Body of a Jordanian,
Latif Ansari, was found

in a meat truck that
came into Harwich.

- Frozen to death, mind you,
there are worse ways to go.

- He wasn't frozen,
he was strangled.

- We found this passport
on his body.

- Where were you between one
and two AM on Monday night?

- Out on the town, knowing
me, probably ended up

at some nightclub, yeah, I
think it was cabaret that night.

Probably.

- Well, you know what it's
like when you go on a bender.

- Do you have any witnesses
to corroborate this story?

- Yeah, yeah, there
were a couple of girls,

one was called Jade, I think,
and the other was called

Rosa or something, it's
not their real names.

You know, Maldovan, hot
new thing at the moment,

better than Albanians.

Stick to
the point, Sweet.

- Yeah, I've saved the
numbers somewhere.

Oh, no, sorry.

Easy come, easy go.

- So you don't have an alibi
for the night of the murder.

- Well, talk to the bouncers,
they'll remember me,

maybe I'm famous,
maybe I'm on CCTV.

- Yeah, and now you've
become a prime suspect

in a murder investigation.

- So take me down to the
station and charge me.

- It'll be our pleasure.

Now you may think you
know the law, Michael,

we do this for a living,
we know how you think,

how you lie, we know
the mistakes you make,

we convict criminals
like you every week.

- Well if you so sure
of yourself, prove it.

- I thought you said your
intelligence was good.

- 24 hours in the
interview room, he'll soon

trip himself up.

- The only evidence you've
got is circumstantial

and hearsay, wouldn't
stand up with a magistrate,

let alone in court.

- Have you got anything better?

You've brought nothing
to this investigation.

- Should have done this
one by ourselves.

I'm gonna go and check out
the alibi at the nightclub,

you see what news Blackwell has.

A thing of
beauty is a joy forever.

Your page is genuine,
the ink and vellum

are sixth or seventh
century, and the Kufic script

is characteristic
of the Osman era,

virtually impossible to fake.

- Oh, where's the original?

- Under lock and key in the
conservation department.

I've done some more
research, a similar Quran

was stolen from the
Topkapi Library in Istanbul

a couple of years ago,
and a couple of the pages

turned up at auction,
see the reserve price?

- 120 thousand pounds a page?

- Mmm.

- How many pages
in a full Quran?

- Up to 1000, you can work
out how much a complete copy

could fetch.

- A lot.

- Turns out the Turkish
pages were passed by

a middleman through Cyprus and
Sweden to a dealer in London,

the dealer has a shop
on Bunce Street.

Dmitri Zavos is one of
the leading experts

in Islamic art, he was involved
with the Topkapi pages.

- How did he get
away with selling

the stolen pages from Turkey?

- Well, Dmitri has offices
in Switzerland

which he used to cleanse
stolen items.

Their property laws
are notoriously lax.

- You know him well?

- Hardly, he's ...

The Islamic antiquities
world in London

is very, very small.

- So you think he could
be involved in buying

some of this Golden Quran, then?

- That much money
involved, I'd be surprised

if he could resist.

- What about murder?

Would he be capable of that?

- I can read seven
different scripts,

speak Hebrew, speak four
Arabic dialects,

but the secrets of the
human heart remain

a closed book to me,
I'm afraid.

Indecipherable.

- Okay.

Leave this to me.

- Ah, thank you very
much, thank you.

From the Golden Age
of Allah and Aluth,

Spain under the Moors,
it's 14th century,

while Louis was still
living in mud huts and

burning witches, the
Spanish Moors were building

the alhambra, leading
the world in navigation,

astronomy, philosophy,
and mathematics.

- Yeah, I don't need a lesson
in ancient history, Mr. Zavos.

- What is it this time?

- You've been interviewed
by the police before?

- I deal in Islamic art, in
the eyes of the authorities

that makes me a sponsor
of terrorism.

- But you were involved
in selling pages

from a stolen Quran from Turkey.

- I was a fool, I dealt
with a client on good faith,

I lost a lot of money, not
to mention my good name.

- Oh, well, we won't
mention it then.

Met anyone dealing in this?

- No.

- It's a Golden Quran
from the Osman era,

probably came on the
market from Iraq.

- Yeah, that tragic country,
you know, the Americans

gutted the oil ministry
when they invaded

and they left museums
to be looted

and the manuscripts
to be burned.

- Yeah, I don't need a lesson
in modern history either,

Mr. Zavos, have you seen any
of the pages of this book?

- No.

I wouldn't get involved, I
had my fingers burned already.

- What about these faces?

Ring any bells?

- No, but if I should see them,

I'll be certain to give
you a call immediately.

Do you have a card?

- Oh, if you do come
across the Golden Quran,

I'd be careful, you
could be in danger.

- So how did it go last night?

- Would've been better
if you'd stayed around.

- Why?

- I could've done with a
colleague to vouch for me.

My wife, another late
night working.

She's starting to think
I might be up to no good.

- Oh, I didn't know
you were married.

- Yeah, well, it can
happen to the best of us.

- So what have we got?

- I must sit down
and make my art

from the foul rag and
bone shop of the heart.

- Frost again.

- No, that was Yeats.

My report.

The PM confirms that the
right kidney was removed

some time ago, while the
remaining one was badly
diseased,

consequently, Mr. Ansari
was suffering from acute

renal failure for months,
he must have been receiving

advanced medical treatment
from somewhere.

- Can we track down the people
who gave him the treatment?

Get an address?

- Tried that, I'm afraid.

- I might have something,
I've just been speaking

to the UK transplant
authority, they keep a database

of all donors and potential
recipients,

I gave 'em the victim's
tissue type and blood group.

It matches a patient
on the waiting list

at a Harley Street Clinic.

- Now that is poetry to my ears.

Miss Deakin-Jones?

You're the
main renal surgeon

at this clinic, yeah?

That's correct.

We need to find
out some more information

about a patient of yours.

- I'm about to go into
theater, why don't you speak

to my secretary?

- Well, unfortunately,
we've tried.

She refuses to discuss cases
without your permission.

Patient confidentiality.

- What exactly do you want?

- We're trying to trace
the relatives of this man,

Latif Ansari, who died
a couple of days ago.

I understand he had
treatment at this clinic?

- Yes, Mr. Ansari,
he was on dialysis

but in a critical condition,
we put him

on the emergency
transplant list,

we were just waiting
for a new donor.

Sue, get an invoice
of Mr. Ansari.

How did he die, renal failure?

- No, strangulation.

We just need a billing
address or something.

When did you last see him?

- I don't know, check
with the registrar.

- Thank you, okay,
his billing address

and emergency contact numbers.

- Would this be up to date?

- I assume so, he was picked
up every day by ambulance.

- Thank you for your
cooperation.

- Glad to have been
of assistance.

- Excuse me, is this right?

Four thousand pounds
for a month's treatment?

- Dialysis is a very
expensive procedure.

- So how much would it cost
for a kidney transplant?

- Varies, anything between
15 and 20 thousand.

- How was he paying?

- I just do the best I can
to save the patient's lives,

Inspector, which is what I've
got to do now, excuse me.

- That's her, the victim's
wife, Narima Ansari.

- No sign of the brother?

- Mmm, she's very beautiful.

- As Blackwell said, beauty
brings out the worst in people.

- What about Sweet's alibi?

- Well, the cameras
didn't cover all the exits

but they've got pictures
of him going into the club

in late evening and
leaving in the early hours

of the morning.

- That'd still give him time
to leave by another exit,

murder Latif, and load
him onto the truck

in the service station.

- He'd have to know the
body would be found.

- Yeah, well, maybe
he just panicked.

- Maybe we've got
better suspects,

neither the brother nor the
wife reported Latif missing.

- Yeah, well, there could be
all kinds of reasons for that.

- Including a Golden Quran
worth millions of pounds.

Marriages are broken
up over a lot less.

- And I thought love
conquers all.

- Because you've never
been married.

- Looks like it isn't working.

- Time to get your
climber boots on.

Welcome to London, eh, where
the streets are paved with gold

- Since Mr. Ansari
is now deceased,

can you bring up all
his medical records?

And then delete them
from the system.

- We'll never kick this
down in a hurry.

- No, usually I'd ask
you to go around the back

but today, you stay
at the front.

- Excuse me, Inspector Lynley,
I need access to your balcony

- Mrs. Ansari?

This is Detective Sergeant
Havers, can you open the door

please?

Police, open up.

- Mrs. Ansari?

When is your brother
in law due back?

Silence won't help you, Narima,

we'll just draw our
own conclusions.

When is your brother
in law due back?

- Sir, look at this.

Peeled intaglio, look
at the laser marks.

- Where did you get these?

- Have you ever met a
man named Michael Sweet?

- Narima, you have already
broken immigration law,

now I find you in possession
of two false passports.

- We needed to stay
in the country,

Latif was so ill.

- Why should I believe you?

Your husband is dead
and you don't seem

in the least bit surprised.

- I knew he was dying,
when he didn't come back

the other night, I knew
in my heart he'd gone.

- Is this your husband?

- He loved London,
I never understood,

he called it the place
where East meets West,

zero degrees or something?

- Zero degrees longitude,
the Meridian.

- He thought we could
make a new beginning here,

start again?

- And how were you gonna
pay for this new start?

Dialysis costs thousands
of pounds a month,

a new kidney up to 20.

- There is no soul here.

All the people care
about is money.

I knew this would not be a
new beginning, only the end.

- Is this how your husband
planned to pay?

We found the original
on his body.

It's a page from a seventh
century Golden Quran,

each page would be worth
over 100 thousand pounds,

the whole book millions.

- What has this got to
do with Latif's illness?

- Your husband didn't die
of kidney failure, Narima,

he was strangled.

- But who?

Why would someone hurt Latif?

- That's what we're
trying to find out.

This is why I need your
full cooperation, all right?

Did anything unusual
happen on the night

that he disappeared?

- I heard them arguing,
a lot of shouting.

Who?

- Latif and his brother, Ahmed.

- Sir, I think that's him.

- Stand aside.

Arrest him when he comes in.

- Stop, police!

- Stop, police!

- What the hell is going on?

I was poised to make an
arrest until you guys turn up

like some bad TV cop show, you
couldn't even catch the guy.

- I'm not the loose cannon
here, I thought we had a deal,

why didn't you tell me
where the illegals lived?

So much for sharing
intelligence.

- I didn't know you
had any to share.

I want to interview her now.

- You hold on.

- She's an overstayer,
I've got the power of

the Naturalization
and Immigration Act

to send her for immediate
deportation.

- I thought you were interested
in people like Michael Sweet

People traffickers!

Why don't you go and
concentrate on them?

- She could be a key witness.

- Look, I am this
close, all right?

Just give me a little
bit more time.

- You've got til the morning,
and then I want her back.

- Move.

Come!

- We don't have much
time, Narima, I need you

to tell me everything.

- I am.

- You said that Ahmed
and Latif were arguing

on the night he disappeared.

- It was something to
do with business.

- Exactly what business
were they in?

- They sold books, many school
books, journals, magazines.

- Would that include
ancient manuscripts?

- I don't know, they
didn't tell me everything.

- Did you ever meet any of
their business associates?

Well, and what about this man?

I'm trying to help you, Narima,

I'm trying to see that
justice is done for Latif.

- About a week ago,
I'd been shopping,

I went to meet Latif
and Ahmed at a cafe,

Edgewater Road, Latif and
Ahmed were talking to this man,

and another man.

- This second man, would
you be able to identify him

again if you saw him?

- I think so, yes, he was
short, not a lot of hair,

he wore a lot of rings.

Mrs. Ansari,
hello, this way, please.

- Well, the second man,
her description matches

the dealer I spoke to.

- I think she's telling the
truth, what do you think?

- Yeah, but I don't think
she's telling us everything.

- I never got a chance
to tell you.

You're going to be a father.

We're going to have a child.

- You know, what I saw
of that dealer Zavos,

I think he'd be very
keen to get hold

of a complete Golden Quran.

Sir?

- She's pregnant.

Narima, sorry.

You should have told
us you were pregnant.

Maybe you should go and
get a checkup, eh?

Doesn't get
any easier, does it?

I've been thinking about this,
the left kidney was necrotic,

badly diseased, while
the right kidney

had been surgically removed
some time ago.

- Well, maybe it
was diseased too.

- Maybe, but it's never
a 100% thing,

you wouldn't remove a kidney
even if it was down to 10%

functioning if the other
kidney was also diseased.

- What does that mean?

- Well, nothing, maybe.

Or perhaps the surgeon removed
the good kidney accidentally.

It's happened before.

- Is that the man you saw
with Ahmed and your husband?

- I think so, yes.

- Do you want to interview
him this time?

- We need a shortcut,
get hold of Blackwell,

tell him to bring the
manuscript with him.

- Inspector?

- Professor, thank
you, Havers tell me

you authenticate manuscripts
for the Zavos chap.

- Only legally imported
artifacts.

- I'm sure, I need you
to introduce me to him.

I'm going to be Tom
Kramwell, ex-pat,

collector living
in South Africa.

- Yeah, well, what if
something happens,

I mean, what if I blurt
something out?

- You'll be fine, we
need to make sure

that he's in the market
for a Golden Quran.

Now how shall I best
come across?

- I dunno, be offhand,
arrogant, treat everyone

like they're a slave.

- That's right, I can do that.

I think it's one of the
great tragedies of our times,

such a diverse and
wonderful culture

can be taken over by a small
band of fundamentalists.

- I couldn't agree
with you more.

- I mean, imagine if the
whole Christian tradition

from Russian icons to Chartres,
Rafael, Tintoretto, even,

was hijacked by a few Bible
belt American evangelicals.

- I couldn't have put
it better myself.

- I say, there's a nice jar,
where do they come from?

- Balukistan.

- Hmm.

- I have the provenance
if you'd like to see it.

- No, don't worry about
that, I say, Professor,

could you give us a moment?

Much easier to haggle
by oneself.

- Of course.

- Of course, the price
is always cheaper

if you can pay cash.

- Let's forget about
the jar, shall we?

I'm looking for ancient
Qurans in Kufic script.

- I'm not sure if
I can help you.

- I've done my research,
Dmitri, I know you're the best

in the business, I also know
that there's a Golden Quran

doing the rounds at this minute.

Hmm?

If anyone'd get a hold
of it, you can.

- Hmm.

- Be sure I'd pay top dollar,
I can outbid any rival

and I don't ask too
many questions.

- Such an object would command
a very high price indeed.

- Hmm, try me.

- I don't understand, what
has this got to do with Latif?

- It could be the reason
he was murdered.

If he was trying to sell
the Golden Quran ...

- No.

Latif would never do that.

- You said you saw him
talking to Zavos.

- Latif was devout, he
read Quran every day,

he believed it was the word of
God and belonged to everyone.

He would not cut it to
pieces, sell it on the street.

- He was dying, maybe
he changed his mind.

- No, because he was dying,
it was even more important

for him to keep his true faith.

- What about Ahmed?

- I can't answer for Ahmed.

- Where's the rest of
the book, Narima?

- I don't know.

- Can I ask you something else?

Your husband had a kidney
removed a couple of years ago,

why was that?

We think he had the
surgery here in London.

What is it you're not
telling me, Narima?

- Thank you for that, you
played your part perfectly,

and my hunch is he
knows something.

- It was fun, quite
exhilarating, actually,

I suppose that's kitman.

- What's that?

- Deception, lying, a key
concept in Islamic philosophy,

also approved of in the
Quran and hadith,

how does it go, "he who is
in possession of the truth

"must not expose himself
to the blindness and folly

"of those whom it has pleased
God to place and maintain

"in error."

- I must try and remember
that one.

Is that ...

- The victim's wife, yes.

- Poor woman.

- Thanks very much,
Professor, call you soon.

You were right, Zavos
is a player

and I think he's taken the bait.

- I need to talk to
you about Narima.

- She can't stay at
the flat anymore,

it's just not safe, why don't
you call the local station,

see if they can organize
a bed and breakfast?

- No, I was right when I
said she wasn't telling us

everything.

- She okay?

- Latif's kidney wasn't removed
because it was diseased.

He needed money for the
wedding and to buy

a new place to live, he
came to London to sell

a healthy kidney,
organs for cash.

- Who did the surgery?

- Couldn't you have
called in advance?

- I'm afraid not.

- Well, I'm off to the
country for the weekend,

my daughter's playing polo.

- We need to see all of Latif
Ansari's medical records.

- Well, I'm afraid that
won't be possible, Inspector.

- If need be, we can
get a court order.

- You told me he was
dead, my secretary sent

all the records back to Jordan.

You could try his doctor there.

- Latif Ansari had a
kidney surgically removed

a couple of years ago,
did you notice that?

- Well, of course.

I assumed he'd had it
removed in Jordan.

We have reason to
believe he sold it for cash

here in London.

- Yes, I've heard of
such things going on,

but naturally, no
self-respecting surgeon I know

would be involved in it.

- You told me this morning
that a new kidney costs

upwards of 15 thousand pounds.

- We get our kidneys through
registered organ donation.

- But demand exceeds
supply, it seems.

- What are you suggesting?

- We've a witness ready
to testify on oath

that Latif Ansari sold
his kidney to this clinic.

- Allegations like this
are made all the time.

You'd need an audit
trail, tissue tape, DNA

to make it stick.

- We'll get a court
order and do just that.

- Do you think that's
a wise idea?

I'm about to be elected Vice
President of the Royal College

of Surgeons, do you
think that the word

of an illegal immigrant
desperate to stay in the
country,

angry at the loss of a
relative, would stand up

against mine?

- That sounds like a good
reason to cover this up.

- I think this conversation's
gone far enough.

- Next time it'll be on caution
for suspicion of murder.

You're not
seriously suggesting

that I could have anything
to do with this man's death?

- Why not, you've the motive.

If you were involved
with the surgery,

you'd be struck off the
medical registry immediately,

10s of thousands of pounds
lost from consultancy fees.

- Not to mention the post at
the Royal College of Surgeons.

- Be humiliating, wouldn't it?

Devastating.

- Inspector, you're
clearly a successful

and experienced policeman.

I'm sure your superior
officers like to hear

only the best reports about you.

- Is that meant to be
some kind of a threat?

- Simply an observation, I can't
imagine you've got this far

if defamation of character
and wild accusations

are your stock in trade.

I'm trying to put this down
to a temporary aberration.

If we say no more about
it, then I won't be making

a formal complaint.

- 15 thousand an operation.

Wouldn't have to do too
many of them in a week

to pay for your daughter's
polo for a year, would you?

- Can I quote you on that?

- I don't think it'll be
me making a statement.

- We'll see.

- Well, that could've
gone better.

- I'm finding it hard to
bite my tongue these days.

- Yes, I noticed.

- What if Ahmed and Latif
were trying to blackmail

the clinic?

- Do you think they'd kill a
patient just to shut him up?

- Zavos, Dmitri.

- I might have someone
who can provide

what you're looking for.

- Excellent, when can
i meet the supplier?

- People in this kind
of market often prefer

to remain anonymous.

- I'm not stupid, Dmitri,
I need to see a sample

before I go ahead with a deal.

- I should have a page
for you tonight.

Shall I meet
you at the shop?

- No, I have a locker,
a secure unit in Camdon,

24 British Road, MW1.

- I'll be there.

- Has Zavos swallowed it?

- Hook, line and sinker,
he'll have another page for us

by tonight, gotta get back
in touch with Blackwell,

make sure we're not
being sold a fake.

- Sir, all this Quran stuff,
as fascinating as it is,

it could be a bit of a sideshow.

- Maybe, but for the moment,
it's the only show in town.

- Let's run through
this just one more time.

These girls were found
dead in a container.

We have audit trails linking
that consignment with you.

- You've got nothing and
you're running out of time.

- We have evidence
of your involvement

in counterfeit passports,
one of which was found

on a murder victim, won't
take long for us

to paint the right picture.

- Oh, you're painting
pictures now, are you?

What is that, like, a
new hobby of yours?

- If you cooperate with us,
it'll look better in court.

- Okay, let's just
say for a moment

that I know about this
counterfeit document, which I
don't,

why would I smuggle
girls from Thailand

when I could just bring them
in using Moody passports?

Paint that picture for me.

I think we're done
here, don't you?

- You're early.

- Hi, Christine.

- Oh, don't tell me you're
still working.

Afraid so,
no rest for the wicked.

- So you won't make that
nightcap then, will you,

not this time.

- It'll be late, very late.

- I don't mind, so long
as you're sure.

- All right then, yeah,
I'll be there.

I've got to go, bye.

- Sorry, I don't quite
understand, why do you need me

at this meeting?

- To authenticate
anything we find.

- Zavos knows I work
at the British Library,

he could suspect a trap or ...

- Oh, don't worry about
that, we've got Havers here

for backup.

- Mr. Zavos, Mr. Zavos?

Stay here.

Mr. Zavos?

Mr. Zavos?

- Lynley!

- Havers!

- What is it?

- In there.

- I'm sorry you had to
go through all this.

If you just wait here, they're
gonna need some samples

to exclude us from
the scene, yeah.

There were prints on it.

- I bet they're Ahmed's.

- How can you be sure?

- I can't, but, you know,
I saw the silhouette

and it was definitely
his profile.

- Same MO, ligature to
neck, look at the bruising,

oh, and there's this,
both thumbs broken.

- Torture?

- Doesn't make sense,
why would Ahmed want

to trash the place?

- Well, he must be looking
for something.

One thing's for sure,
anyone capable of this

would be capable of
killing his brother.

- Nothing is for sure, Havers.

- Are you okay, sir?

- I set up this meeting, I
precipitated this man's death.

- You don't know that.

- Well, that's the
point, isn't it?

I don't know, I'm just
stumbling around in the dark.

- Why don't you take
a break, sir?

I've got a full description
of Ahmed circulated.

- Better check up
on Michael Sweet,

it could be connected.

- Okay.

- Make sure that Professor
Blackwell gets home all right?

- Yeah, maybe it's something.

- I don't know how you
cope with all this.

- Who says we cope?

Hello?

- Christine?

Tommy, I
didn't think you'd make it.

- Is it too late for
that nightcap?

No, never
too late, wait a moment

and I'll buzz you in.

What's wrong?

- Everything.

- Sorry it's such a tip.

- Oh, please, better
than my place.

Everything's so tidy
there, empty.

- Can I get you anything?

- Nightcap?

- Oh, I checked on Michael
Sweet, he was bailed

this morning.

There.

- Thank you.

- I got a letter from
Helen yesterday.

She's going on holiday
and would like to talk

when she gets back.

I think she's going to
ask me for a divorce.

- You don't know that.

I was just over at
Christine's place, just now.

She asked me over tonight.

Got as far as the doorbell
and I couldn't do it.

What's wrong with me?

- How 'bout you're
still married?

I saw the way you
looked at Narima,

when you heard she was pregnant.

It must be almost a year now
since Helen lost the baby.

These things take
time to get over and ...

Well, I think you're
still grieving.

- Not just for the baby.

For my marriage.

For the life I had.

- Then why don't you
tell Helen that?

Go back and fight for her.

- Not for, I don't even
know if I love her anymore.

I don't even know
if I did love her.

I loved the idea of her, I
loved the idea of being married

to her, I loved it, my
mother was delighted by her,

she's my best friend.

But did I love her?

Like Narima loved her husband?

I don't know what I feel.

Isn't that terrible?

- No, it's human.

- I can't go back to
my house tonight.

- You can stay here.

You can kip on the sofa.

I'm sure this will look
better in the morning.

- How do you do it,
living alone?

You get used to it.

I've never been married,
I've never had anything

that you could call
a relationship,

so you get to a point
where you just have to

accept what you are,
what you have,

and then you find something else

and that gives you the reason
to get up in the morning.

And I have that, don't I?

- We both do.

- Good night.

Sir?

- Havers, sugar?

- Yes please.

- You were right about
a good night's sleep.

I was thinking about
what you said last night.

It does all come down to
passion in the end, doesn't it?

- Oh, you're talking
about your marriage?

- What, no, no, no,
about the murders.

We've been thinking that
it's a financial motive

but what if the only thing that
can explain Ahmed's actions

is passion?

Passion not for wealth,
but for Narima,

or the Golden Quran.

- Yeah, we've been assuming
that Ahmed has the Quran

and has been trying to sell it,

but what if he doesn't have it?

I'll bet that's what he was
looking for at the lockup

last night.

- So our best chance
of catching Ahmed

is to get to the Quran
before he does,

and if he doesn't
already have it,

where the hell is it?

- What is happening?

- There's been another
murder, and we think

Ahmed is responsible.

- Narima, you have to
tell us everything.

What was going on
between you two?

- Nothing.

- Does Ahmed want more
from you in some way?

Is he in love with you?

- I can't speak for Ahmed.

- It's Brennan.

- He's supposed to be
handing her over today.

- I'll stall him.

- What?

- Get her 'round the
back, put her in my car.

- Where's Mrs. Ansari?

- Inside, I still need her.

- You charged her with anything?

Then it's my turn
to speak to her,

you've had your chance.

- I would like to use her
for a decoy operation.

- Tough, you'll have to wait.

- You tell me off for
breaking the rules,

what'd you tell him?

- That I was using her
for a decoy operation.

- You're going to
push him too far.

- I was thinking on my feet.

- Yeah, it certainly
wasn't with your head.

- Look, Latif may not have
wanted to sell the Quran

but he wouldn't want
to destroy it either.

I think he wanted to
keep it somewhere safe

with someone he trusts.

- Narima.

Now where would you hide
something you only want

your wife to find?

- Go back to the flat,
do another search.

- They're not against it, they
just need to see something

really quickly, do you
know what I mean?

Because otherwise if
it's too long winded,

they're just going to
snip it right off.

So I think if that ...

- Christine, excuse me.

- I'll catch up with you.

- I'm sorry about last night.

- It was a work crisis,
I'll explain.

- Actually, I'm rather
busy myself.

- I know that, and this
is a professional visit,

I need your advice.

- Talk to my clerk, he'll
make you an appointment.

- No, you don't understand,
this is a little bit

more urgent than that.

You remember the overstayer
I talked to you about?

Narima Ansari, Christine Miller.

- How do you do?

- Where East meets West.

Yes, Inspector
Lynley.

- Sir, I think I've
found something,

it's some kind of message.

What does it say?

- I don't know, it's in Arabic.

Hold that
thought, I'll be over

as soon as I can.

- Okay, bye.

- This isn't really my field.

- I thought you spoke
five Arabic dialects.

- Well, I do but this
is Persian, my Persian's

a bit rusty.

Has this got anything to
do with the missing Quran?

- Yeah, we think that Latif
might have been trying

to hide it from his brother,
but he may have wanted

his wife to find it.

- This isn't going to be
much help, I'm afraid,

it says, literally, "on
this side of life,

"there is you and
I, but behind the,

"on this side of life
there is you and I

"but beyond the veil,
there is no more you and I,

"only us."

- I don't get it.

- It's the last two lines of
a love poem by Omar Khayyam.

- So it's just a tribute
to his wife?

- I suppose so, yeah.

Do you think there's any
chance of recovering the book?

- I don't know.

Looks like we're going to
have to take the stairs again.

Ahmed?

Stay here.

Sir, Ahmed's here, he's
running down the stairs.

- Right.

- Ahmed!

No!

- We know you were at the
lockup when Zavos was murdered

because we found your
prints all over the place

and I saw you, well,
you might as well

say something in your defense.

We have all we need to
charge you with murder.

- Then why I speak?

- To put your case.

To admit or deny your guilt.

- Of course, I am guilty.

- Why did you kill your brother?

- I no kill him, Allah is
almighty, he take Latif back.

- God has nothing
to do with this,

Latif didn't die because
of kidney failure,

he was killed in just
the way Zavos was,

he was strangled.

- What was it, hmm?

Did you want Narima to yourself?

- You are not talking
of Narima here, huh?

She has nothing to do with this.

- That's why you killed
your brother, isn't it,

to get his wife, your
sister in law?

Or was it for the Golden Quran,
which one, money or lust?

- How you understand?

- Well, then, explain it to us.

- Under Shariah law
it is my duty.

If my brother's wife
becomes widow,

then she becomes my wife.

- And what about Zavos?

And selling pages of
the Golden Quran,

is there anything in
Shariah law about that?

- I buy book from
trader in Baltat.

I thinking it was old Quran.

I didn't know until I am
here how sacred it was.

You were flogging pages
on the black market.

- Only for paying my
brother's medicine.

- And then something
changed, didn't it?

You argued with Latif on
the night he disappeared,

why was that?

Perhaps because you found out
how much the Quran was worth

and then we find his dead body.

- I was angry, he said, the
word of God belongs to everyone.

He had the Quran and then
go to get pages back.

- So that's what you
were doing with Zavos?

- I give him one page as sample,
but when Latif disappeared,

I knew it was haram, we were
all being punished by God.

- So you confess to the
murder of Dmitri Zavos?

- Of course, I am guilty
because I am Muslim, huh?

- Ahmed, don't hide behind
your religion.

- God punished that man,
I did not, he was dead

when I get there.

What about
your brother?

- Narima think I killed him?

- I expect so, unless
of course you can offer

a better explanation.

- I take one page to
show the Greek man,

Latif have the other
one, but when he find out

what it was, he wanted to
return the Quran to mosque,

give God's word back
to the people.

- What was Latif doing
the night he disappeared?

We found the other
page on his body.

- He go to service station
to tell the other man

he is not selling.

- What other man?

- Was it this man, Michael
Sweet, the man who sold you

the passports?

- No.

- Well, then, who was it?

- How I trust you, huh,
you are working together.

- What other man?

- I see him with you
when the Greek man died

and with you at the flat,
that is why I ran away.

- Blackwell?

- He is the one who knew
how sacred the Quran was.

- So he's after the
rest of the Quran,

Zavos is dead, Ahmed's in
custody, where does he go next?

- Narima?

- Yeah, where is she?

- I told her it was
safe to go home.

- What?

- Well, with Ahmed
in custody ...

- But Blackwell knows
where she lives.

- Hello, Narima.

I don't want to hurt you, I
don't really want to hurt anyone

- What do you want?

- Narima, your husband
loved you, you know,

your name was the last
word on his lips, Narima.

- You killed him?

You killed Latif?

- He refused to tell
me where the book was.

- What do you mean, why
did you kill him?

- Oh, God, Narima, you
know, you showed me

one of the pages like that
one, where's the rest of it?

- I don't know, help!

Help!

They don't care, can't hear you.

You were the only one
he could trust, eh?

What was all this, you
know, no more you or I,

what was that?

- This is just a poem.

- No, it was a message,
Latif was trying to tell you

where the book was hidden,
where is it?

Where is it?

- You knew what he did with it.

Tell me where it is.

- I don't know where it is.

- You're lying.

- No, please, I don't know.

- Tell me, where's the
book, tell me where it is.

No!

- Blackwell.

- Where's the book?

- Blackwell.

- Move back, I'll
throw her over.

- You don't mean that, she's
got nothing to do with this.

- She's got everything
to do with this,

she knows where the
book's hidden.

- Think about it, you don't
need any more innocent blood

on your hands, for God's
sake, man, she's pregnant!

- I don't care, humans
breed all the time,

they're like vermin,
what do you say,

all life is worthless, but one
page from that book abides,

it shines.

- You mean this, you
killed for this?

- No.

No!

- Sir!

- Life is worthless, is it,
is your life so worthless now?

- Sir?

- How did you do it, kill
for a piece of paper?

- It's easy, you see.

- Stop!

- I'll do it.

- Stop!

- Do it, push me.

- Sir!

- Yeah, we got in touch,
be with you shortly.

- I need Mrs. Ansari handed
over for deportation.

- For what?

- She's an overstayer,
traveling under false papers.

- Then you better talk to
her lawyer, Christine Miller.

Apparently she's got
a good defense

under article 31 of the
UN refugee convention.

Asylum seekers shouldn't
be removed from the country

while there's an outstanding
legal action,

and Mrs. Narima Ansari
is a principal witness

in a murder case.

- She's got a good
brief, no big deal.

Plenty more where she came from.

I been talking to people
about you, Lynley,

you've really come off
the rails this time,

you're heading for a crash.

- This could be a monumental
waste of time, Havers.

- Latif wouldn't have
hidden the Quran

without leaving a clue.

- I think it's just a
love poem to his wife.

- Well, Narima said he recited
the verse under that tree

the day he proposed to her.

He said, there's no
more you and I, only us.

- Inspector, we found something!

- Havers, you were right,
you're a genius.

It's beautiful.

- The Golden Quran, so much
pain, suffering, for this?

What will
you do with it?

- It should be given
to a mosque.

That is what Latif
would have wanted.

- I'll try my best.

- We can't give it to
a mosque, can we?

- No, no, it'll probably
end up in a vault somewhere

with various governments
arguing over who owns it.

- What's this?

Who are they?

- Inspector Lynley?
- Yeah.

- Detective Chief Inspector
Harris, CIB,

we need to speak to you.

- About what?

- There have been several
official complaints

and an allegation of
a serious assault.

Thomas Lynley, you
are under arrest,

you do not have to say
anything, but it may harm

your defense if you do not
mention when questioned.

- Hold on.

- I'm sorry, Barbara.
