Trial and Retribution & The Commander

Trial and Retribution & The Commander Lynda La Plante

 From prolific crime author Lynda La Plante comes two highly stimulating and seductive TV dramas

Award-winning author and highly acclaimed screenwriter Lynda La Plante presents two of her most provocative and compelling television series to date - Trial and Retribution and The Commander, both are now available to own on DVD.

Trial and Retribution is a cutting edge crime drama in both style and content as it traces the entire trajectory - in human and legal terms - of a serious crime.

The story begins as a crime is committed and DS Mike Walker and DI Pat North are sent to investigate. While the two have very different policing styles, they soon find their working relationship develops into a tantalizing love affair.

The police investigation soon proceeds to an arrest and then into the law courts where the defendant is tried by a judge and jury. The viewers hear the final verdict - but it is for them to determine whether justice has been done.

Trial and Retribution probes the human implications of a horrific crime, the impact on the victim's family, the motivation of the suspect and the emotional devastation to the officers involved. This series holds back no detail, resulting in a complete lack of predictability.

Lynda La Plante's The Commander is a sultry and enthralling thriller directed by Michael Whyte and stars Amanda Burton, Hugh Bonneville and Matthew Marsh.

When Claire Black (Burton) is promoted to the high profile role of Serious Crime Group Commander she is in control of the Murder Review Team, a group who are assigned with the arduous task of reviewing and reinvestigating the most disturbing unsolved murders and crimes. However controversy ensues over Claire's 'unconvential' methods of sleeping with suspects to gain evidence - exemplified in her sexual relationship with murderer James Lampton (Bonneville.)

Following on from phenomenal success of Window and The Red Dahlia, Lynda La Plante delivers once more with these captivating, thrilling and risqué television series Trial and Retribution and The Commander.
