John Troy Donovan

When a charming criminal who Jane helped convict is let out of jail to catch a killer, she tries to outwit the murderer, Jane and the CBI team.

In this episode, an honourable designer of hi-tech drones pays a high price for a fatal mistake, and, after Red John takes another life, Jane gets his most solid lead yet to the identity of the serial killer.

After being sent out of town with Jane to investigate a murder, Lisbon follows a lead on her own, which leads her right into Red John's snare.

The team investigate when a fund-raising party for a new musical is interrupted by a dead body falling from a balcony and landing on top of a car. Meanwhile, Jane waits for the only man who may be able to identify Red John to regain consciousness.

The list of Red John suspects has been narrowed to three and the CBI concentrate their full focus on finding out which of them is the serial killer. Jane thinks that he knows, but the truth will uncover a bigger lie.

Jane comes close to establishing a solid link between Bret Stiles' Visualize cult and Red John, as he and Lisbon investigate three murders from the eighties.
