Saint Marie, the fictional Caribbean island paradise in “Death in Paradise,” sees its share of peculiar crimes. But this Friday’s episode takes a decidedly modern turn, blending murder with the world of online dating. When a man is found shot dead in his villa while waiting for a date he met through an app, the team, led by the ever-perceptive Neville Parker, is faced with a puzzle complicated by a misplaced bullet. Why would the killer place a bullet in the victim’s hand?
As Neville and the team look into the victim’s digital life, they uncover a web of lies and deceit. Adding to the intrigue is the arrival of a new colleague, who, according to the BBC’s preview, makes an immediate impression “for all the wrong reasons.” Meanwhile, Neville’s ongoing investigation into his mother’s case continues to simmer in the background, attracting the attention of a suspicious figure.
Will Neville crack the case and expose the killer lurking behind the dating app profile? Find out when “Death in Paradise” airs on BBC One this Friday, March 7th at 9:00 PM.
