One for Sorrow
Season 9, Episode 1
The detective is faced with a difficult case when he investigates the discovery of a body in a well, and he also has to contend with a new boss, Chief Superintendent Moody, who is dubious as to Lewis' motivation for coming out of retirement. As investigations into the human remains in the well proceed, an avant-garde artist's body is also discovered and at first glance it looks like a tragic drugs overdose, but Hathaway and Lewis quickly recognise the tell tale signs of murder
