Veronica was an intriguing episode and very clever in it's storyline. Emily is IMing on her mobile when she hits an old woman with her car. The woman seems dazed but wants to be taken home. Emily does so, but when they arrive, they find an art gallery. Emily calls in Dad. The woman is convinced 'Charlie' killed Rose (her sister) and that Lightman is her husband, Bert. She is suffering from Alzheimer's but Lightman is convinced there is something going on. On investigation, (and lots of red herrings), he works out that Veronica was engaged to Charlie but he got her sister Rose pregnant. As she was a nurse, she organised for an abortion for Rose and was assisting when complications set in and Rose died.
However, that's not the end of the story as there have been a dozen deaths in the last six months at the aged care facility where Veronica has been living and Lightman is convinced that she is substituting 'Charlie' for the real killer of the residents.
A very clever storyline and it's difficult to work out who is the killer. Great episode and I can't believe this show has been cancelled.
