Prime Suspect

In the opening series, D.C.I. Tennison seizes the opportunity to head a murder investigation—something she should have done long ago, had she not been passed over by her male superiors time and again.

Nearing retirement, Jane Tennison deals with personal problems while investigating the death of a pregnant teenager.

Tennison finds herself investigating the skeleton of a young girl found in a garden; tensions run high in the community after a black youth is arrested.

Tennison's case becomes complicated by the police department's concern about its relationship with the community.

DCI Tennison has been transferred to a new station and a new assignment: getting prostitutes off the streets of Soho. But when a 17-year-old rent boy is burned to death, her superiors aren’t keen on her investigating the murder.

The victim was a regular at a center for homeless kids run by Edward Parker-Jones, the darling of the department. As if matters aren’t thorny enough, a former lover comes to town and causes Tennison to question her life.
