We know that Death Valley season 1 episode 5 is poised to arrive on BBC One next week — so what can we say now?

Well, first and foremost, it makes sense to just kick things off here by noting that somehow, we are already near the end of the season. There are only two more episodes to go, but this one is going to be especially interesting given that it is a little bit more personal for some of the main characters. What happens when a murder-mystery party turns real? Also, what happens when John finds complications in his personal life in the middle of it? Basically, there is so much worth inspecting here from start to finish.

Luckily, the folks at the aforementioned network are stepping up to the plate with a lot of details. Below, you can see the full Death Valley season 1 episode 5 synopsis with more insight on what is to come:

A murder mystery event turns into a real murder investigation when famous Welsh actor and TV detective Anthony Hart is found stabbed to death at the dinner table. There’s a lot of pressure on Janie to solve this murder, which isn’t helped by the fact that John is close friends with Helena Hart, the sister of the deceased. John and Janie’s investigation reveals not only a feud between siblings warring over property and their family’s legacy, but also the pitfalls of fame and the kind of person Anthony really was. John finds himself rekindling his fledgling romance with old flame Helena, but ultimately, it’s through an unexpected connection with a suspect that he is reminded of the dangers of living in the past, which inadvertently helps Janie let go of her own baggage. For Janie, the case is the final hurdle she must overcome if she is to achieve her ambition of being promoted to detective inspector.

It is possible that this story will in some way connect to the finale; yet, at the same time, don’t be surprised if the story shifts in an entirely unexpected direction, as well…
