What Season 10 of Vera

Vera Stanhope, Chief Inspector of the Northumberland & City Police, is almost retired but still obsessed with her work. Her calculating mind spots the flaws in her colleagues' reasoning, and her right-hand man, Sergeant Joe Ashworth, backs her up on every case. Despite her gruff manner, she genuinely cares about her team. The cases take her across north-east England. At first, a businessman in financial trouble, Freddie Gill, pushes her to look into his family and their possible ties to organized crime. Then a young man searching for his biological father demands her attention, and Vera follows Luke Sumner's trail in Newcastle. Ann Cleeves created the series, which stars Brenda Blethyn.
