The Suspect (Joseph O'Loughlin)

Product Information

Turns out, the psychiatrists weren't entirely wrong. Bobby was being horrifically abused as part of a paedophile ring… only it was his mother orchestrating it, not his dad. So who exactly killed Catherine McCain (Tara Lee), and more importantly why? Let’s just say the answer became explosive.

This proves to be wise, as doubts about O’Loughlin pile up increasingly fast. One of the applications, which he has failed to look through in a timely fashion, for the role of receptionist at the doctor’s private practice is from the victim, now identified as Catherine McCain, an X-ray technician. He shreds it. This is a bugbear: if I could get rid of the sense that at least 15% of the effort put into most crime dramas goes into thinking up innovatively vile ways for the (usually female) victims to die, I would probably enjoy them 20% more. Speaking of the show's gripping ending, Shaun says: "I could not work out what was going to happen. All I knew was there was something more going on here. As soon as I read that, I was in. And you really don’t know who is responsible for this murder. As it unfolds you realise, ‘Wow’. That a story like this can happen. You have people who really are that devious in their thinking." DS Devi played by Anjli MohindraOther names include Bobby Schofield( Time), Bronagh Waugh ( Ridley), and Angela Griffin ( White Lines), so it's a really great cast! Previously working with The Sun Online , Yahoo , Metro.co.uk and Independent IE amongst others, she joined the Digital Spy team from 2021-2023 as Deputy TV Editor (Maternity cover).

Yes, The Suspect looks like it's going to be a gripping watch! In it, we see Aidan Turner's character in his work and home life, as he slowly starts to delve deeper and deeper into what's happened as he gets involved in Catherine's case.

I think you did all the killings,” Joe told DJ quietly. “This isn’t about revenge, DJ. This is about forgiveness. You need Bobby to forgive you. You should have saved him from that barn.

But from his own, less than ethical investigation, Joe knew there was more to it, and eventually discovered Bobby Moran was actually Bobby Morgan, who had previously lived in Liverpool, where Catherine had lived, and he had trained to become a psychologist.During their showdown, Joe was strapped to a chair with his wife and daughter tied to the fridge, and he used his skills as a psychiatrist to get the truth out of Bobby.

[2] Although DJ attempted in vain to get Bobby to stop, the emotion overwhelmed him as he explained to Joe what his mother used to do. Horrified, DJ told his brother that Charlie didn’t need to hear this, to which a furious Bobby accused him of not lifting a finger to protect him, despite being his “own blood”. There are currently nine Joe O’Loughlin books published, with The Suspect ending only taking the psychologist’s story up to the end of the first book of the same name. The second book in the series is titled Lost and sees DI Ruiz become the focus of the plot after he is suspected of a horrific crime when he’s found covered in blood in the Thames. This would certainly make for a spellbinding mystery to follow in The Suspect season 1’s footsteps and would retain Joe as the main character anchoring the plot from season 1 to a potential season 2. But when he attempted to make a move on her, confessing his love, she rebuffed him, telling him that it was never a competition between him and Joe, and that she only loved her husband. What happened next?

When the police search McCain’s digs in Liverpool, the victim’s flatmate (who tells them he is the X-ray technician; she was a community nurse, which is the kind of detail well-trained thriller viewers will duly note) mentions that McCain was often depressed, but planning to move to London to be near the lover she would never tell him anything about. Bobby idolised his dad, and was determined to exact revenge on those who had tarnished his name and driven him to take his life. He'd also somewhat healed his issue with DI Ruiz, with the potential of them working together or even becoming friends in the future… Lord knows the detective needs some help.

You see, Bobby's father died by suicide after being accused of abusing the young child, with Joe among the names who had signed off on the probable cause of Bobby's mental health issues.
