Loveday Writing

This episode interestingly focused more on the case of the week than Fern and the River bones.

The case of the week revolved around bones found in a backyard, where it is revealed that they belong to a young homeless woman, Sally (Zindzi Okenyo). While the most obvious suspect was quickly eliminated, what was interesting about this case was that the reveal of her murderer was delayed by the writers’ choice to explore the nature of homelessness through the documentary that Sally appeared in, the current life of Sally’s former partner, Phil (Damion Hunter), and Lindsay (Richard Green), a homeless man Harrow knows, asks for help and offers accommodation to.
