Episode Chronology:
Sharpe is left shattered after the discovery of a young girl's body. With the corpse badly burned, there's an agonising wait to find out if the search for Joanna is at a tragic end. CID push on with their paedophile investigation after the arrest of Howard Sinclair, however he is later found dead at his home after being bailed. Hunter is left to reconsider his alliances when a close friend of Ron Gregory is implicated in the ring, and Meadows is left hoping that they can finally nail Gregory. When the body is revealed not to be Joanna, Sharpe insists on joining the paedophile investigation after suggestions she was sexually assaulted before being killed.
