Episode summary:

Det Supt Pullman's trust in her team is shattered when she discovers they have hidden an important secret about her past from her. The news that her father, a DI, killed himself while under investigation for corruption, throws into doubt everything she believed in. Her mother, Grace, is in hospital following a stroke and Pullman wastes no time in confronting her, but she doesn't get the answers she's looking for. Unfortunately, her father's service records provide Pullman with some revelations she may never come to terms with. Still reeling from the news, Pullman is asked to reinvestigate another family affair – the death of circus ringmaster The Great Miraculo, aka Bert Dignam, at the request of Christy Berlin, who has recently discovered that he was her biological father. But will the investigation at Spingles Circus be enough to distract Pullman from feeling utterly betrayed by her colleagues?
