This is certainly one of the most emotionally draining of all episodes. It involves Frost and Barnard investigating three distinct cases. The murder of a frightened little man, the disappearance of a young woman, part of a depressing family, and a case of a military man who has aroused suspicion. This is really a show about child abuse and all its ugly implications. It's also about the denial of those closest to the crime that often allows these things to go on forever. Frost must deal with people who are pretty much hiding everything. We only know that they are terrified by something and are living daily with that fear. Over time, Barnard has become the finest partner that Frost has worked with. They had a shaky beginning but have become very close. They actually end up sharing an apartment in this one, due to Barnard being turned down by a landlord. What ensues is one of the most difficult episodes in the series. It may be the best.
