Ep. 2: Samurai Plague Doctor Kills for Kicks (2022-04-04)

Harry and Fergus have become local celebrities, and the murdered man’s widow approaches asking for help. She doesn’t believe his death was a suicide, and she’s accumulated evidence––her late husband’s body cam, and newspaper clippings announcing cryptic games. But Harry isn’t interested in any more cases. Kayleigh, she tells Fergus, was a one-off. She’s his tutor, not one half of a dynamic duo.
Ep. 3: Mincemeat (2022-04-11)

When a body is pulled out of the river near Harry's local pub, something about the dead man feels familiar to Harry. When she remembers how she knows him, she realizes she's stumbled onto the ultimate misdirect.

A stuffy dinner party in the home of Harry's former colleague goes awry when a vomiting bug hits all the guests but Harry.

Too eager to prove herself, Vicky makes some rash choices and zeroes in on Harry as the culprit, leaving Fergus to prove her innocence.

A violent storm traps Harry, Fergus, and Lola in the local pub.

When a wealthy matriarch is strangled to death during a video call with her horrified relatives, the woman's daughter employs the services of the Wild/Reid Detective Agency.

Money seems to be the motive for the murder, but everyone who stands to inherit was on the call.
