[chessington]

Just love this, loved last years too, they go together so well the actors, brilliant programme, may there be more in the future

[murraymints]

Have recorded it will watch soon..

[Tilly2]

I agree, Chessington. It is brilliant.

[naomi24]

Me too, but who are the people in that house where he had breakfast and where he came to meet her before journeying north? Friends? Family? I don't remember them being in it before and if there was some sort of explanation I didn't catch it. Anyone know?

[Tilly2]

I think it's his sister.

[naomi24]

Oh is it? Thanks Tilly. I missed that.

[Tilly2]

In a previous series, his sister was concerned about him splitting up with his long term girlfriend and she also insisted that he went to some family party or other.

[naomi24]

I really don't remember them being in it before. Thanks Tilly. You've solved a puzzle for me.

[mallyh]

she is an old school friend .

[naomi24]

Ahhhh ....

[Tilly2]

He definitely has a sister, sorry, I thought that was her.

[Tilly2]

I'm going to have to read the book now. I haven't read this one.

and a lawyer who defended the mother in the last strike ^^^^.google strike the silkworm cast .

[naomi24]

Found this:

//Lucy Strike is Strike's younger half-sister on his mother's side. She craves suburban normality and family stability to make up for their peripatetic childhood, and is seen by Strike (perhaps a little unfairly) as somewhat judgemental. Strike attends her son's birthday party in the first novel. During the second novel, she hosts a birthday meal for her half-brother. Though he admits to being extremely fond of her, their relationship is sometimes strained.//
