Crime drama based on a true story, Manhunt (an over used title if ever there was one) focuses on the tracking down of serial killer Levi Bellfield by Detective Chief Inspector Colin Sutton in the mid 2000’s.
Despite his relative inexperience Sutton found himself heading up the murder investigation of French National Amelie Delagrange in 2004. Sutton’s dogged investigation led to links being discovered between the murders of Marsha McDonnell and Milly Dowler.
The story is based on Sutton’s own memoirs.
