Summary
When Lucy Chen arrives at a remote lighthouse bed-and-breakfast in the teeth of a winter storm, she expects an old lady and a warm room, not the quiet, guarded man who has inherited the place. Tim has built his life on solitude, his dog, his cooking, the steady rhythm of waves against stone. But Lucy’s unexpected arrival unsettles that calm, drawing colour back into the faded edges of his days. As storms batter the coast, both will be forced to face the truths they’ve been avoiding: that sometimes strangers carry the very changes you never knew you needed.

Summary
“You should’ve taken the bribe, Sergeant; started a new life,” Everett says.
Tim stares him down. “There’s no way that ever would’ve happened,” he says plainly. He won’t ever throw away his integrity like that, no matter the cost.
“I don't need that kind of money. I don't even want it,” he had told Everett during the arrest, and he hasn’t changed his mind on that. “Maintaining my integrity? That's priceless.”
“This mistake will come back to haunt you,” he had responded. “You have my word on that.”
“In that case,” Everett responds, smiling eerily, “You really should’ve just gone to jail.”

Summary
The case should be routine. But it isn’t.
When Lucy is assigned to investigate a series of assaults targeting women who look disturbingly similar to her, instinct tells her there’s more at play than just random violence. As the pattern reveals itself more and more, so does the realization that some threats aren’t just about the job, they’re about who you are.
And of course, Tim Bradford has never been good at just standing by when the danger becomes too personal.
*Basically set somewhere in season 8 and follows canon events; post-canon*
